Visible notes
As with many other surgeons, his skills were enhanced by World War I during which he did remarkable work in transforming battered faces. He served with the Australian Imperial Force in Egypt, Lemnos, Gallipoli and France, gaining experience of military surgery at Ypres and Passchendaele. He was lieutenant-colonel commanding the Australian section of Queen Mary Hospital, Sidcup, where pioneer work in plastic surgery was carried out. In 1918 he represented the Australian Army Medical Corps at the Inter-Allied Surgical Conference, Paris. Later he wrote the section on facio-maxillary injuries in volume 3 of the Official History of the Australian Army Medical Services (1943).
