Harry Stevens - my grandmother's brother. We visited his memorial in Tyne Cot a few years ago. He died on the Somme.
Albert Humphries - my great grandfather's younger brother.
His grave is quite literally in the corner of a foreign field - we visited and drove out of the village, along quiet country roads until suddenly, on the right, amidst fields was this small beautiful graveyard. So different to Tyne Cot but, nonetheless, moving.
Two young men, of the many, remembered.
