The earliest photo the family has (c 1928), he joined the navy with his school mate at 15. Cornwall, who was mortally wounded on the gun next to my grandfather's position, was also wounded. The family rumor is that my grandfather actually sat for Salisbury's portrait due to lack of photo, naval records attribute that honour to Cornwall's brother, we will never know. What is a fact is that there are circulating pictures of Cornwall head and shoulders with 3 different names on the cap tally, he only ever served on the Chester.
