#LestWeForget Whilst visiting home, in Pembrokeshire last week, I had to visit this lonely soldier who rests nearby and who is not forgotten. Next time, I’ll take some gardening tools and tidy up around his gravestone. #WW1 #FWW #Saundersfoot #Pembrokeshire

Very much looking forward to seeing this book published & learning a little more about my grandfather’s cousin, Howard Richmond Henry Butler who died in a flying accident at Turnberry in 1918. #lestweforget #WW1 #FWW #Turnberry #Ayr #Aviation #RFC #AFC @RAFMUSEUM
Coming soon by our good friend Margaret Morrell. The History of Turnberry Airfield during both Wars. Should make for some fantastic reading . @TrumpTurnberry @ShillingCurate @samuseums @RFC19181

Nice to see ‘The Half-Shilling Curate’ shown as one of the Western Front Association’s ‘hidden gems’! I hope many people who haven’t or have read the story will continue to enjoy my grandfather’s incredible account of courage, love and faith. #WW1 #FWW #Chaplain #Faith #Courage.
