Alfred enlisted during World War I, when he was 46 years old.  He served with the British Expeditionary Force for nearly a year before being discharged as unfit for further military action.111

See Army Service Record

He appears in The National Roll for the First World War. This says that he served into 1919.  However, this probably means that he was in the Army Reserves from when he was discharged until 1919.

See National Roll citation

This again gives different information.  The correct details are unclear.
