Clifford Stribling was born in Tarlee, South Australia, in 1890.  Clifford came from a farming family and had 5 siblings.  He signed up in July 1916.  On ANZAC Day 1918, he was wounded in the leg defending the town of Blangy-Tronville in the Somme.  He died a few hours later.  100 years later, the residents of Blangy-Tronville honoured his sacrifice by naming their school after him.  We are grateful to ancestors of those he fought to protect for helping keep our cousin's memory alive.
