Pte. William Mogie
British Army 5th Battalion Queen's Own Royal West Kent Regiment
from:Jarrow-On-Tyne
(d.28th Dec 1943)
William Mogie was born on the 16th March 1923 and sadly died on the 28th of December 1943 at 20 years old.
He was the eldest in the family and wrote a letter home only 8 days before his death. William expressed in his letters to his mother and father that he was sorry he couldn't buy anything for New Year as there was nothing to buy. He also stated in the letters that the battalion he was in had been in North Africa and had just arrived in Italy which is where he was buried only a short time after.
He was a very much loved son and brother and the memory of him will always be kept alive.
