Pte. Thomas Charles Brooks
British Army 8th Battalion Rifle Brigade
from:Bristol
(d.25th Jan 1916)
Thomas Brooks served in Egypt and South Africa before fighting in the First World War. He was at the Battle of Ladysmith and we have a letter from him that says "we have had a rough time of it in Ladysmith but we are alright now that the column has come in and relieved us".
His life ended age 33 years when he was shot in the head in Belgium in 1916.
