     Frank Mather was a sapper in the Royal Engineers in the World War I and served on the Somme. He was too old to serve in World War II but did join the Home Guard, which was formed as a last line of defense in Britain during the second war, composed mainly of the elderly, and the young and those on reserved occupations for the war effort. He was a lieutenant and used to bring unexploded incendiary bombs home, which had fallen when he was on night duty. The last one he brought home was an incendiary with the addition of an explosive head timed to go off a minute or two after the magnesium had ignited and people were about to smother the bomb with sand.

In civilian life, he was trained as a toolmaker before he went into the army, but after WW I, he also became a pattern maker and eventually took charge of the foundry and pattern shop at the Witton Works of Britain's General Electric Corporation, when his father retired.
