Doe's anyone remember COMPLETED THANK YOU
« on: Tuesday 22 April 14 05:44 BST (UK) »
Hi All

Doe's anyone remember a man posting here about a year ago regarding photo's for his WW1 book?
He wanted photo's of all NZ Army Soldiers during WW1, he had already finished one book and another was due this year.
Just wondering if he had completed the next book and what was the name of the book and web site he had?

Feeling quite blue,  only found one of my family,  and would expect too as he was a VC recipient.
Also no photo of a Adam Black Douglas WILSON , but his picture is on the cenotaph website. All in all though a wonderful resource , am looking forward to the third book .

Don't give up Gail; as you have noted, a third book is coming.

Many of the photographs have been contributed by the holders of family pictures. Maybe you can rectify the situation regarding your VC recipient in this way?
