Wilson left school at the age of seventeen to join the Royal Artillery, serving on the Western Front in the First World War. He sustained wounds to the left hand and right leg, which left him with a permanent limp, and was subsequently mentioned in despatches. After the war he won a scholarship to read medicine at Trinity Hall, University of Cambridge, where he joined the University Officer Training Corps. After qualifying he spent three years in junior medical posts at the London Hospital. In 1926 he passed the examinations to become a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh and, after three years in general practice, he set up in private practice in Queen Anne Street, London as a general surgeon and gynaecologist. In 1924 he enlisted in the Territorial Army, initially with the rank of lieutenant, and from 1931 also joined the Royal Army Medical Corps as a Territorial officer, rising to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. By this time he had developed an interest in and knowledge of firearms and was able to supplement his income by appearing in court as an expert witness. Sir Gerard Burrard, author of The identification of firearms and forensic ballistics, wrote that his ".work on self-loading pistols has placed him in the front rank of authorities on the mechanisms of firearms". In 1943 Wilson published his own textbook on automatic pistols, which was republished in 1990.
