William K Shepherd landed in Gallipoli on the 30th June 1915; he suffered a bullet wound to his left leg on the 17th of September 1915.

He was evacuated to Malta for recovery and, due to the seriousness of the wound, was sent back to the UK. He was discharged in March 1916 due to no longer being physically fit.
