He was born in March, 1881, and passed out of Sandhurst for the Indian Army at Christmas, 1900, being attached to the South Staffordshire Regiment in March, 1901. He became lieutenant in the Indian Army in February, 1905, and captain in April, 1910. Captain Beattie-Crozier lived at Croxley, Wroxall. ___________________ The Times 29 May 1915 CAPTAIN PERCY BEATTIE-CROZIER, 4th Rajputs, attached 15th Sikhs, who was reported killed in action on May 18, while serving with the Indian Expeditionary Force in Northern France, was the only son of Dr. John Beattie-Crozier, LL.D., and Mrs Beattie-Crozier, of 9, Elgin-avenue, W. Born in 1881, he was educated at Merchant Taylors' School and at Sandhurst, and was gazetted to the 2nd South Staffordshires in 1901. In 1905 he exchanged into the Indian Army and served in the 60th Punjabis, the 22nd (Sam Brown's) Cavalry, and in the 4th Rajputs. While stationed at Fort Sandeman he took part in the quelling of two border raids in 1909. In 1913 he was appointed aide-de-camp to the Acting-Governor of Ceylon. On the outbreak of the war he was on leave and returned to India in the Dongola, and was recalled in November to join the Indian Expeditionary Force in France. He was then invalided and unable to go up to the front till April, when he was attached to the 15th Sikhs. A keen polo player, he captained the regimental polo team which won the Nicholson Cup in Ceylon in 1911 and again in 1912.
