A collection of letters from Pte Dick Armer to his wife Mabel who he frequently referred to as "Dear old girl". His three children were Billie, Marjorie and Dorothy who was born while he was away.
Dick had promised to "write every day" and, with few exceptions, kept his promise. The letters were written during WW1 from Camp Borden in Canada, on the train to Halifax, on board ship to England, from Witley Camp and France.

Next Letter 31st of July 1916.
Thought everyone might like to see Dick in uniform. Back row first on left.
If anyone can identify the other soldiers, please let us know and we'll publish their names too.

Got an email from one of Mabel's descendants saying the other soldiers were "Grandma's brothers".
