Discovering the stories behind personal memorials to those who served in war by those who knew them best
Somerset Light Infantry
(Prince Albert's)
These are the battalions of the Somerset Light Infantry which have service personnel listed on Wars Last Goodbyes
They give a very illustrative picture of the local cost to communities when particular battalions went into action during war
Click on the battalion, and it might give you a better idea about the tragedies which went on at home as news of loved ones came home
