In memory of my uncle Leslie Brooks Newsham who died in India 1944 whilst in the Royal Engineers. He was born in Benenden, Kent 1919. His name is on the war memorial in Benenden. He had only been married a few months and was a lovely man! he is much missed! In memory of my great uncle Albert Bogg bborrn Plumstead, Woolwich, Kent who died on 11th November 1918, Armistice Day in Belgium. He was in the Kings Royal Rifle Corps. He had been shot in the lungs two weeks before and died on that day. His wife Winifred had had a baby daughter Joyce in August of that year. He knew about her but had never seen her. In the family we have the last letter than he wrote to Winifred in October in which he apologises for missing her birthday and sends love to 'little Joy'. He too was a lovely man! He too is much missed! Thank you dear Leslie and Albert for what you did for us and Great Britain! We don't forget you!
