From official records I see that my great uncle got into trouble for having shaved his upper lip in "disobediance of battalion orders". July 1915 2nd battalion
As I have photos of my grandfather in 1st Worcs without moustache, I am at a loss as to why this was so. All I could come up with was that there was a water shortage!!
