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.

I want to thank the staff at Museum Strathroy Caradoc for taking over the posting chores while I get my computer up and running again. Had a massive invasion and had to reformat my C drive. Lost my edition of Photoshop Elements, which is what I use to make jpgs out of pdf files. Should be up next week. I hope.
