George in 1915

George Edward Schultz (14 February 1887-19 August 1917) was a British Army Captain in the First World War, in the first-ever 'Bantam' battalion (formed to accommodate volunteers who were below the Army's minimum height requirement). He served in northern France, and was killed in August 1917 leading an assault on a hill in Picardy known as The Knoll. His grave is in the nearby village cemetery at Villers-Faucon. A blue plaque was erected by the Oxton Society, Birkenhead, in his memory in 2021 outside the house where he was born.
