Further to today’s post concerning Arthur Burton and the excellent research supplied by Roger ‘@ziksby’ Jones, David has kindly supplied a scan from Arthur’s transcribed diary where he describes his remarkable experience on the front line. Cheeers to David and Roger for their excellent work – I’ll transcribe this later so it’s searchable.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again; with the invaluable contribution of readers like these top chaps, we’re nailing local history. This is why I blog.
