can anyone give some advice on how to find WW1 army records? I believe my grandfather lied about his age when he inlisted in the DCLI. We know he was wounded at Polygon Wood and was taken to Canterbury. He was in the Homeguard in WW2 in Blisland Cornwall, and that he had a war pension (no kept record of this). Any help would be appreciated. Thank You Jean
