TheRedWizard Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Hi Red, yeah, the book is for me ! i 'discovered' this scrapbook months ago, and have been refering to it over the weeks. the main interest in it is the photograph of Arnold Loosemoore VC, and his six brothers who all served during ww1. this i was able to pass on to one of Arnold's relatives in Devon last week, she was "over the moon" to receive a copy. regards Dean I bet she was chuffed to bits, you're really doing some amazing stuff with this research!
