Picture

'I'd like to have known my grandfather better. I was still young when he died. I would
love to known his thoughts on war in general and on the Gallipoli and Palestine campaigns
in particular as I have read a lot of their history. I suspect he abhorred war and was simply
doing his duty. I miss him fondly'.
