Uncle Eddie was my Great Uncle who died in the First World War.  He was an Apprentice Cabinet Maker and we still have the china cabinet that he made to win the Gold Medal.

He was killed bravely fighting at Bullecourt and his body was never found.  Below are letters from and about him including a very moving account from his friend Mr. W H Robinson as to how he died. I cannot read it without crying. I hope you gain something from reading this about these heroes who fought and died.
