He was wounded at the battle of the Tugela Heights in late February 1900, as his battalion took part in the Relief of Ladysmith.[4]
He became Commanding Officer (CO) of the 4th Battalion, Middlesex Regiment in August 1914[5] and led his battalion at the Battle of Mons later that month and at the Great Retreat in September 1914 during the First World War.[2] He went on to be commander of the 10th Brigade in November 1914, General Officer Commanding (GOC) 56th (1/1st London) Division in February 1916 and, after a period of recovery following major surgery in the United Kingdom in the autumn and winter of 1917, he became GOC 16th (Irish) Division in February 1918.[2] He returned to the 56th Division in May 1918 and then transferred to become GOC 43rd (Wessex) Infantry Division in June 1919 before retiring in September 1920.[6]
