Percy James Starks was born on 12 October 1883 and attested for the Royal Marine Artillery on 18 August 1902. Awarded the Long Service and Good Conduct Medal with £20 gratuity on 26 December 1914, he later served from 24 March 1915 to 20 September 1917 aboard the battleship H.M.S. Zealandia; ordered to the Dardanelles at a time of severe storms, Zealandia suffered severe damage to her gun ports en route which effectively ended her campaign before it had begun. Sent for refit, she spent the remainder of the war on North Sea Patrols and as a gunnery training ship. Starks later transferred to H.M.S. Royal Sovereign and then H.M.S. Hood, before being shore demobilised in August 1923.
