In memory of the fallen in WW1. How to use this board.
« on: Wednesday 30 July 14 11:30 BST (UK) »
In memory of the fallen in WW1. Post the names of your ancestors that fell in the Great War, a background to their story, perhaps a photograph of them or their family, or what this means to you.

Anyone searching on those soldiers will find the post and get the added personal story from a real relative who cares which in a small way adds something for posterity and to their memory.

<br>Please post in the 'Subject' the date they fell, followed by name, age and regiment. <b>DATE, FIRST NAME SURNAME,AGE, REGIMENT</b><br>
Include Rank and Service Number in the main post where known.
