Captain George Andrew Dunn accompanied the original contingent of the Liverpool Scottish to France aboard the Maidan in November 1914. He was commissioned in the rank of Second Lieutenant to the Cameron Highlanders on 10 July 1915, and took part in the Battle of Loos on 25 September 1915, on which day he was wounded and as a result invalided back to England. He rejoined the 6th battalion on 23 March 1917 and was attached to the Trench Mortar Battery, before finally being posted to the 1st battalion on 10 June 1918.
