Wikipedia, Bruce Bairnsfather: «In 1914 he joined the Royal Warwickshire Regiment as a second lieutenant and served with a machine gun unit in France until 1915, when he was hospitalised with shellshock and hearing damage sustained during the second Battle of Ypres. Posted to the 34th Division headquarters on Salisbury Plain, he developed his humorous series for the Bystander about life in the trenches, featuring ‘Old Bill’, a curmudgeonly soldier with trademark walrus moustache and balaclava. […] Many of his cartoons from this period were collected in Fragments From France (1914) and the autobiographical Bullets & Billets (1916).»
