    Report 
  • Dear Andrew, Of all the time I was posted to Trentham Military Camp I had no idea you were training troops to go abroad, nor did I know you had even existed until now. Your sister was my Great Grandmother. May you and Charles rest in peace. Your contribution and bravery has not gone unrewarded. You's had served well. Lest we forget.
