My Great Uncle Joseph Stendall served with the 2/8th Notts and Derbys Regiment.

He was a Lewis Gunner with No.10 Platoon. Killed in Action when in the attack near Hargicourt, France, he had reached the German wire and was doing great work when he was shot. He had been recommended for the French Croix De Guerre. Prior to enlisting he worked for S. Eden and Sons at The Hermitage, Mansfield.
