Pte. Herbert Larke
British Army 2/8th Btn Lancashire Fusiliers
(d.21st March 1918)
If we had a story of daring do we would tell it but we don't. The generations have gone by and taken the secrets to their graves all we have is a piece of paper stating where and when and a faded photo.
We hear of a broken family loosing a son from a small Essex village called Blacmore. Probably never even heard of by some people. All we know is name rank number and a stone on a wall in Poziers. No grave, not even a mention on the village memorial to the war dead of WW1 how very sad.
