Ernest Hall served in the Balkans from 1 August 1915, where British forces in Salonika faced some hard fighting, the assaults at Lake Doiran in April and May 1917 being cases in point. However, the chief enemy on the Salonika front proved to be the malarial mosquito with over 7000 hospital cases reported in 1916 alone. Hall subsequently transferred to the Labour Corps.
