All,

Thanks to forum members now reached my target of over 400 photos of fallen polo players.

The 457 comes from obits in the Polo Monthlies.

Just trying to freeze content to publish.

Seperate thread shows 56 I am short incase any really late entries.

Are you only interested in the 457, or are you interested in additional names who were noted Polo players but not mentioned in the Polo Monthlies?

MG

[tharkin56]

Info would be gratefully received, there are names of the wounded in the polo monthlies and photos of the polo players prior to the war. I went off the obits as the main source, anything gratefully received

Thanks

There's a photograph of Oswald William Boddington in the History of 5th North Staffords. Would you like a scanned copy or is it too late?
