Torquhil Duncan Ferachar first entered the French theatre of war in the Gordon Highlanders in late October 1916 - his MIC also states that he saw service with the Black Watch. Afterwards a member of the Territorial Army Reserve of Officers, he was advanced to Captain in December 1922 and transferred to the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders.
