Hello Annie and Marc,

It looks like the dufuss has found them.  ;D ;D

As for the name Annie, although Marc hasn't confirmed it; Richard Thomas McNamara, Gunner 238842.

Marc, the camp he was in prior to being posted to the front is probably Larkhill. It's one of the many that were on Salisbury Plain.

Phil :)
