The photo s are great I've no problems with them as I want to really know what it was like for him. The info is amazing thank you for all your hard work.  I have one photo of him at my nans wedding as a middle-aged proud smart man, and from his eyes I want to understand an know what it really was like. I'm under no illusion what it was like and I understand the reality of war was very bad.  If was to look at war diaries for the time he was wounded which battalion do I search as I get very confused with it all. Once again thank you
