Sgt. John Douglas Watson
British Army 9th Btn. G Coy. Gordon Highlanders
from:Aberdeen
This post card was sent by my great-uncle Douglas Watson, to his brother James Innes Watson. John died at Loos six months later. On the reverse of photo is written, "9th Gordons, G Company , 12th Platoon, in genial mood! Taken at Perham Down, Hants, on Sunday 21st of March 1915. Hope you're still fit. 6th Gordons have evidently been getting it. No word, Jean says, lately from you, soon, I hope. My beauty is rather marred by the white spot. Douglas."
