Charles Herbert Giles attested for the Liverpool Scottish on 1 September 1914, and was one of the original contingent who travelled to France aboard the S.S. Maidan in November 1914. He was either wounded or evacuated sick and as a result transferred to the 2/10th Battalion, followed by the Machine Gun Corps, before recieving a commission in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers on 15 June 1918.
