Thomas signed up as a territorial soldier with the Loyal North Lancashire Regiment in March 1913. He gave his age as 14 years and 8 months.

Thomas's birth certificate shows that he was actually 13years and 7 months when he attested. It took 3 years before the Army discovered Thomas's true age. I cannot find any evidence that suggests Thomas served abroad.
