(d.17th February 1917)

James Stanton was my grandfather. He was killed in a trench raid at Ploegsteert, Belgium along with about 50 others. He is buried at the Berks Extension cemetery. He left a widow and a three year old daughter, my mother. His Captain described him as a brave man and a popular and well respected sergeant. My two brothers and I visited his grave on 17th February this year, 2017, the hundredth anniversary of his death.
