	A newly found relative sent me a disc with copies of letters sent from my O.H's Grandad to one of his sons all during WW2. He was a Captain himself and in some of the letters was giving advice etc. and then just loads of bits of news which are fascinating. One even mentions him and Mum visiting my O.H's Father. Also a copy of all of his war records, battles, dates and when he won the Military Cross. He was 14 and 11 months when he joined up in 1903 and was a Captain when he died aged 59 of a brain haemorrhage. Just keep reading it all again and again. Linda
