This superb window can be seen at St Peter's Church, Yoxall, Staffordshire. Had the artist served at the Front, I wonder?

Hi all, there is a stained Glass window in the museum of the Manchester Regiment in Ashton-Under-Lyne.
It honours 2nd Lt Edward Worsley Westbook who fell at Gallipoli. Not sure about its previous location but it is free standing so it may have been removed from a demolished church?.
If anyone want's a picture them PM me.
