Timbob1001 Posted 7 June , 2013 Author Share Posted 7 June , 2013 A huge thanks Simon! The chap in question is 3414TF/265964 Private George Stanley Wall, 1/6th Battalion, the Gloucestershire Regiment, Territorial Force. He died on died on 11th August 1917 probably of wounds at one of the three groups of casualty clearing stations clustered near Ypres, - Mendinghem, Dozinghem and Bandaghem.

Timbob1001 Posted 9 October , 2013 Author Share Posted 9 October , 2013 Hi Simon Forgive my disorganisation - did you send on copies of the War Diary? Just returned to the project after a long enforced gap. Best Wishes Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon2 Posted 9 October , 2013 Share Posted 9 October , 2013 Hi Tim, I did send copies of July + Aug 1917 to the e-mail address you provided in your PM. I cannot remember why I didn't copy June though. Any way I will be there again in the next couple of weeks as I have a list of things I need to read,copy + look up in case you still need June. I usually wait to collate a larger list of items to get as they require a donation every time I visit. As nearly all the items I go there for are for myself I am more than happy to pay the donation and add items for other people. Send another PM with your current e-mail address and I will send them.

Timbob1001 Posted 10 October , 2013 Author Share Posted 10 October , 2013 Hi Simon - apologies I may be having a case of bad memory or OPC problems. What is your email - can check that way if it was intercepted by my SPAM filters. June would be great if you have a chance. Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
