He and his brother Clive Norman both went to England in 1914 with 4th Light Horse Regiment, AIF (C Squadron), and latterly were both commissioned into the Royal Field Artillery, Charles in 1915/1916, and Clive in April 1917 I think. I had come across Clive's name when he was serving in 36th Brigade with 15th Battery in late 1918, and won a Military Cross. http://www.aif.adfa.edu.au:8080/showUnit?unitCode=LH4SCdne1https://www.blogger.com/profile/07267782309143280388noreply@blogger.com
