Very interesting pictures. I am going to have to see what there is in the museum but I don't believe there is a surviving file at least not from the spreadsheet I have access to at home. I can say that his full name is John Thomas Hornick and he joined Birmingham City police on the 21st August...

Tim You are very kind thank you. Interestingly throughout our lives there are many occasions that we will remember for both good or bad reasons. One such occasion for me was when I was approached by a friend of a friend to ask if I would take her father and his sister to the battlefield area as...

It's getting close to that time of year again. I will be going to the Somme battlefield the end of March.

Very interesting, I had never heard of this incident before. Excellent post Steve R
