L/Cpl. Arthur Truett
British Army 32nd Btn Royal Fusiliers
from:London
(d.10th Oct 1916)
My Great-Great Uncle, Arthur Truett, served in WW1 and was killed in action during the Battle of The Somme. He is commemorated on the Thiepval Memorial in Somme, France.
Many generations of my family have served in the Armed Forces but I did not know until recently that a family member died in WW1. My Great Uncle, who is still alive at 99 years old, served in Normandy in WW2, my Dad in Malaya in the 1960 and I in Afghanistan in 2011. I feel more connected to WW1 now and those who lost their lives. Arthur Truett will always be remembered.
