Re: Boring But True From The Scottish Military Geek !
Thank You Jock Scot.
I for one am attempting to keep alive the memory of my great uncle, Thomas Spence, who died of wounds on April 2, 1918 while in the Black Watch and as a POW of the Germans.
He was only a Private. No wife or girl friend. All of his immediate family is long gone. But I am doing my best to ensure that his sacrifice is appreciated and remembered. He died for all of us, and we need to remember that.

Reason: It's germans, not gremans.
Si Deus, quis contra? Spence and Brown on my mother's side, Johnston from my father, proud member of Clan MacDuff!
