Biography

William lost a foot at the age of twelve when a carriage overturned, crushing his leg. He walks with a wooden foot and with the help of a cane. Unfortunately, he is not fit for front line service, but unwilling to sit at home while men fight for king and country, William took it upon himself to join the VAD.
With pristine penmanship and a near unnatural affinity for numbers, he has managed administrative and record-keeping duties at both civilian and military medical offices since the start of the war.
