Biography Frederick walked from Salford to Seaford in order to enlist. He did this because he was not allowed to enlist in Salford due to having no eyebrows. On his arrival at Seaford he drew eyebrows on, presented himself, and was duly accepted.[1] We do not have any biographical information about this soldier. | |
