Gordon Robert Nelson
This man is my grandfather. He apparently started in the seventh burn and was transferred at a later date. He was under age when he joined up and had his 18th birthday on Gallipoli. If any one can give details on battles he was in that word be great.
After the war he went on to become an outback postman at Adavale in QLD
He also served in WW2 with both Australian and American forces
