At the outbreak of war, George was in London, having graduated from the Westminster College of Pharmacy and enlisted into the 9th Lancers. He was soon commissioned as an officer and transferred into the 17th battalion of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers.
In January 1916, George married his sweetheart Amy Fleming and they lived at Sylva Gardens in Craig-y-Don. However their time together was short as George was soon back on the front line.
He is buried at Dozinghem Military Cemetery.
