Two Great Uncles from the First World War

 

Archie Studd & Felix Alexander

Here is a photograph of my two Great Uncles who died in the First World War.
Archie Studd was a Private in the London Regiment (London Scottish) and died on the first of July 1916 in the battle of Gommecourt he was 26.  Felix Alexander was a Private in the Northumberland
Fusiliers, Norfolk Regiment and died on the 14th of November 1916, he was only 20.  They are both remembered on the Thiepval Memorial.
Both my Grandparents spoke of them - they have always been remembered.

Archie is on the left and Felix on the right
they are shown here with a white poppy for peace.
