KevinBattle Posted 9 December , 2014 Share Posted 9 December , 2014 Just to say a heartfelt Thanks to Terry, Chris and all in the IFTC team.for the work they continue to do to ensure that these men are Not Forgotten. William is no relation, but attended the same Church in Chiswick and I am appreciative that even after so long, men rightfully due commemoration in the Debt of Honour database are still being added.

lionboxer Posted 10 December , 2014 Share Posted 10 December , 2014 I note that four of the five men mentioned above died from TB. I have seen that it was recorded in Parliament (Hansard) that by 1918 already 20,000 men had been discharged due to TB. I was wondering if there are records of how many men died of TB during and/or after the war? Lionboxer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
