19 May 1915 The Express and Telegraph (Adelaide) report his departure to a Field Hospital during WW1:

THIRD AUSTRALIAN HOSPITAL. ; DR. A. M. GUDMORE. Dr. A. M. Cudmore will leave South Australia to-morrow with the other members of the staff of the Third Australian Hospital. The other South Australian doctors who are on the staff are Drs. Russell, W. T. Hayward, and De Crespigny. This hospital will have 32 medical "men, and 1,000 beds. A recent cablegram suggested that the third hospital would go to Europe to supplement the Australian voluntary hospital, and make it up to 1,500 beds.

Dr. Cudmore is one of the most eminent surgeons in Adelaide, and will be much missed both from the Adelaide Hospital and the University. He is a son of the late Mr. James Francis Cudmore, and was born at Paringa, River Murray.
