dom Posted 29 November , 2005 Share Posted 29 November , 2005 Hi I am trying to find information on the following soldier and having been born in Aberdeen/enlisted Aberdeen why he was in the HLI. This being the only regiment he served in according to his MIC. His MIC also states pres dead which I take to mean they did not even know.I was also wandering if his name is on any of the local War Memorials? The soldier in question is 1467 Pte William C Thain 10th Bn HLI. KIA 25/9/15 Remembered on the Loos Memorial. I would be most grateful for any infomation. Regards Stan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
