A letter from Pte. J J Kennady in Bracco Army Camp London England recalls family ties as Pte J Peaver of Georgetown returns home from the front. Sergt H R Swackhammer trains in Toronto in Physical Drill and Bayonet Fighting while Pvt Edgar Stewart recovers from a Toronto hospital. The Long Eaton Advertiser features portraits of Pia Smallwood and his sons Pres Herbert and Smallwood, highlighting the three hardy soldiers, fathers and brothers, wounded in action and in hospital at Gl ingow and Croydon.
