Thanks for the reply. I will be very grateful for any further information. I have been reading about the Eclipse. It's such a sad piece of history. I will certainly donate to the Poppy appeal. My great uncle survived the war, despite the Battle of France, Siege of Malta, Leros, and being a prisoner of war....but he would never talk about it to his son (my cousin). My great-grandfather was the same. He fought with the Buffs when Winston Churchill was a journalist attached to them. He also faught in Gallipoli at 52 years of age. These guys were so brave.
