I am sorry that I do not know your Christian name. I am not aware of the precise circumstances of your death, nor what caused it, but, as a former soldier in the 1st Lincolns myself, doing my National Service in 1950, I am pleased to be given this opportunity to salute you as a brave young soldier who lost his life in the service of his country. You were laid to rest with nine other members of our regiment in Arras Road Cemetery near Roclincourt. I understand that the graves of some of our colleagues were moved to Arras Road in 1926-29 from some of the surrounding cemeteries. Whether you were one of these I do not know, but in any case I trust that the Guard of Honour at your graveside, whether new or old, fired the traditional salute to a fallen comrade. In addition to your gravestone at Arras Road, I also trust that you were commemorated on your home town war memorial. My sympathy to your parents and other relatives who mourned your sacrifice. Rest in Peace. Harry.
Henry Harrison
