Quarter-Master and Lieutenant Frederick William Leslie Gleed was born in Lambeth, London and enlisted in the Norfolk Regiment at Great Yarmouth in April 1885, aged 18 years, following earlier service with the 3rd Surrey Rifle Volunteers. Advanced to Corporal in June 1886 and to Lance-Sergeant in November 1888, he went to witness active service with the 1st Battalion in the Chin Hills operations of 1892-93. Awarded the L.S. and G.C. Medal in late 1903 and advanced to Sergeant-Major in February 1904, he was finally discharged in April 1910. His R.V.M. was awarded in June 1909 in respect of services at the presentation of new Colours to the 1st Battalion, Norfolk Regiment, by King Edward VII. Gleed was briefly re-employed in the Great War as a Quarter-Master and Lieutenant (1914 Army List refers), but was again pensioned and died in October 1916, aged 47 years.
