Peter in recognition that against your wishes you were the chosen son to remain at home while your only two brothers fought in WW1. One brother was lost while in England, David. Your brother Charles served and returned home alive but ill from a disease he had contracted fighting in the trenches. You also lost Charles from this disease. My mother, your niece told me that you just could not cope with these losses or with not being allowed to serve. The war touched your life and shaped your fate. I hope that all involved have found peace.
