William joined his unit in Maadi, Egypt in early March. He was then transferred to the Field Artillery Brigade at Tel-el-Kebir at the end of the month. He joined the 4th, and then the 13th FAB, 52nd Battery. The following month, he was mustered as a Driver at Ferry Post. He was then transported to the Western Front in June.
Once he settled in, he was taken on strength to the 25th FAB. Artillery units were essential to overall Allied strategy. Infantry and Command relied heavily on them for the success of operations. At the end of December, William attended a Signalling School, and when he returned in January, was transferred to the 13th FAB, 50th Battery. After another training session at a Signal School, Artillery Units were positioned for the Third Battle of Ypres. Firepower here was vital. Not only in destroying enemy defences, but also, in providing the creeping barrage; a protective curtain behind which the infantry could advance.
On the 4th of October, the 50th Battery was firing against the Germans at Passchendaele Ridge. However, the telephone lines between the Observation Officer and the Battery were constantly being cut by fire. William, who was with the Forward Observation Officer, took it upon himself to stand in an exposed position in view of the enemy, to visually signal the Battery. He stayed at this post for many hours, despite heavy shelling, enabling operations to continue. For his devotion to duty, William was recommended for the Distinguished Conduct Medal. He was promoted Temporary Bombardier, and awarded the Military Medal on the 31st of October. William then qualified for a commission in the field.
In January 1918, he was taken to England to attend the Royal Cadet School. He was subsequently appointed 2nd Lieutenant on the 19th of September, and returned to France later that month. On the 11th of October, he was transferred to the 5th Divisional Ammunition Column, and 14th FAB, 114th Battery a week later. After the war ended, William was promoted Lieutenant on the 19th of December. He remained with his men, until he was shipped back to England in March 1919.
