Private Charles Frew
Charles was the elder brother of my grand-father Robert. I do remember visiting my grand-father’s sisters when I was younger but have little knowledge, unfortunately, of his family. Goodness knows what horrors he saw and I am so proud of the part that me must have played. I can’t imagine what his family, and others like them, went through.
