Description
Description
British War Medal (766110 PTE. A. ADDISON. 19-CAN.INF.); and Victory Medal (766110 PTE. A. ADDISON. 19-CAN.INF.). Naming is officially impressed. Un-mounted, light contact, spotting on the VM, better than very fine.
Footnote: Arthur Addison was born on June 20, 1894 in Brandsby, Yorkshire, England. He signed his Attestation Paper as a Private (766110) with the 123rd Infantry Battalion "Royal Grenadier Overseas Battalion 10th Regiment", on December 4, 1915 in Toronto, Ontario, at the age of 21, naming his next-of-kin as his mother, Elizabeth Addison of Battle Creek, Michigan, USA, stating that he had no previous military service, that he was not married and that his trade was that of Farmer. Addison was admitted to Exhibition Camp Hospital in Toronto, on January 26, 1916, where he was diagnosed with "Synovitis of the knee" (occurring when the synovial membrane which lines and lubricates the knee joint, becomes inflamed or may be caused by another condition, such as rheumatoid arthritis or gout, or may develop on its own). After four weeks, he was discharged to duty with the 123rd Infantry Battalion, on February 24th. The Battalion was raised and mobilized in Toronto, Ontario under the authority of G.O. 151, December 22, 1915. The Battalion sailed from Halifax, Nova Scotia, August 8, 1916 aboard the S.S. Cameronia, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel W.B. Kingsmill, with a strength of 12 officers and 369 other ranks, arriving in Liverpool, England on August 18th. In England, Addison was posted to Bramshott, where the Battalion was re-designated the 123rd Pioneer Battalion. Private Addison was transferred to the 19th Infantry Battalion on October 10, 1916, arriving in the French theatre on the 11th. Twenty-three days later, he left for the 2nd Entrenching Battalion on November 3, 1916, joining them on the 9th, later returning to the 19th Infantry Battalion. He was with the 19th Infantry Battalion when he was admitted to a Field Ambulance on June 5, 1917 with a case of the Mumps. He was transferred to No. 7 General Hospital at Camiers on the 6th, where his stay would entail three weeks, before being posted to the Base Depot on the 27th, then returning to duty with the 19th Infantry Battalion on July 8th. It was noted at No. 2 Canadian Infantry Base Depot on September 4, 1917, that Addison had "deformed hearing", which was brought to light, when a shell exploded close to his head. He was treated for the next three weeks and was discharged to duty. He was transferred to the Canadian Labour Pool on January 18, 1918, then posted to No. 9 District, Canadian Forestry Corps, 37th Company, on January 27, 1918. Four days after the war was over, Addison was admitted to No. 7 Canadian Stationary Hospital at Camiers, on November 15, 1918, where he was diagnosed with "V.D.G." (venereal disease, gonorrhea). He spent two months in hospital being treated for the malady, before being discharged on January 12, 1919. Two weeks after his discharge from hospital, he was struck off strength for demobilization, to the Canadian Forestry Corps Concentration Camp Depot at Le Havre on January 26th, then posted to the Canadian Forestry Corps at Sunningdale on January 29th. In his Medical History of an Invalid, dated May 7, 1919 at Sunningdale, Addison was examined by a doctor with the Canadian Army Medical Corps. In his report, the doctor documented two ongoing concerns regarding Addison's overall health. The first concern he had was that Addison suffered from a case Suppurative Otitis Media, which occurred in 1912, as the result of an infection while in Canada. Three years prior to enlistment, he had had a severe cold, followed by an earache and discharge from the right ear. This caused Addison to have "defective hearing", with a partial loss of function in the ears, the doctor noting "on enlistment, right ear was still discharging some - defect of hearing (slight). In 1917 - shell exploded close to his head & he was deaf for about 3 days, then hearing became some better & left ear began to discharge. Deafness has become worse since then." This was followed by his ears being syringed for the next three weeks. The shell exploding close to his head aggravated the condition and as such, the doctor declared him Category "B" (fit for service abroad, not general service). The doctor also identified the trauma in the right index finger, which had been crushed in the cogs of a spinning machine in 1908 at the age of 14, while in England. This resulted in an amputation "at the third proximal phalanx, practically at the metacarpophalangeal joint", which also caused a partial loss of function in his right hand, however, there was no tenderness at the scar. The doctor also stated that this condition was noted upon his enlistment in 1915. He was subsequently posted to the Canadian Corps Camp Rhyl, Military District No. 2 at Witley on May 21, 1919, where he was struck off strength for return to Canada, on June 2nd, 1919, embarking from Liverpool aboard the S.S. Lapland. Addison was taken on strength at No. 2 District Depot in Toronto and discharged upon demobilization, on June 11, 1919, credited with having served in Canada, England and France, and entitled to wear the War Service Badge, Class "A", number 137294. For his First World War service, Addison was awarded the British War Medal and the Victory Medal.
