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 soldier who lost his life in the service of his country. You were one of the members of our regiment who were either killed in action or were mortally wounded during the later attacks, both German and Allied, which followed the Battle of the Somme. You were laid to rest with 11 other members of our regiment in Warloy-Baillon Communal Cemetery Extension, north-east of Amiens. I trust that the Guard of Honour at your graveside fired the traditional salute to a fallen comrade. In addition to your gravestone at Warloy-Baillon, I also trust that you were commemorated on your home town war memorial. My sympathy to your relatives who mourned your sacrifice. Rest in Peace. Harry.
