Hello,
Henry Joseph KEETLEY was my Great Grandfather.
When WW1 started he applied to join the NZ Army and was refused because of his age so he came to Australia and joined the A.I.F.
He was KIA in France on 27.3.1917.
I have a photo of him in his Boer War Uniform and have his original BW medal and replicas of his Australian medals.
