My grandfather was invalided out of the army after being wounded at the Somme. He had part of his right hand shot away, so he could no longer fire his rifle. The army sent him back to UK after being first treated in a field hospital. I know this from his war record. However, I have been unable to find out which hospital he was sent to. His regiment was the Gloucestershire, but he, like many others, arrived on a casualty train and was just sent to whatever part of the country had empty beds. He landed up in Birmingham, and when he left hospital he decided to remain there. He met his future wife, and they were married in 1920 in St Andrew's church, near to where the football ground is now.
