Private George Frederick Drayton (3382, 60th Battalion) was born in South Melbourne, Victoria. He was working as a farm labourer when he enlisted in June 1917 with his parents' consent. George was carrying rations in the front line at Peronne on 2 September 1918 when he was hit by a shell and killed. He was originally buried in an isolated grave but was later reinterred in the Peronne Communal Cemetery Extension, Peronne, France. George's mother later wrote that he was 17 years and 10 months of age. George's brother, Private Leslie Athol Drayton, was killed in action in Belgium in October 1917.
