Campaigns:

Unit / Ship / Est.: 1/1 Berkshire Battery Royal Horse Artillery

Egypt was the base for the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force which was engaged in the region, primarily against the Turks. In the early stages of the war Egypt was threatened by Turkish advances towards Suez which were defeated and the Turks retreated to Palestine. Most of the effort of the MEF was thereafter directed towards operations in Palestine and Syria. Many of those buried and commemorated in Egypt succumbed to wounds, disease or were army victims of naval actions in the region.

Captain Hartnoll joined the 1/1 Berkshire Royal Horse Artillery (T.F.) in 1910, was mobilized with his Regiment on the outbreak of the War and was sent to Egypt in April, 1915.

He was gazetted Captain in June, 1917. He served in Egypt, at Aden, and finally on the Palestine Front. He died on May 20th, 1917, of enteric fever, at El Kantara, Egypt.

He was the last pre-war officer to serve with the unit.
