Not Forgotten Association

Actually, I've just counted six whom we know, one of them an ex-WAAF officer.

Hello Maywalk I think I have heard of the Not Forgotten Association. It was their centenary last year, hope they are able to do something this year to celebrate this achievement.

That may be where I had heard of it too.

We do know two or three ex-servicemen who were in WW2, I will mention this to DH.

I lost an uncle within the first fortnight of WW1 Blossoming .
He has his name carved on a stone there.
When I contacted the war office many years ago I was told he was the only one named Thomas Huddy who was killed in that war.
My mother ( Tommy's sister ) lost her eldest sister and twin nieces on the Titanic in 1912 and Tommy killed in action in France and Flanders on 28th /August /1914.

Not many remember this wonderful association Silverlining and there is some very interesting reading on here about it.

They could contact radio4 who have a different charity appeal every Sunday morning. 100 years is worth celebrating and no, they are not forgotten.

No, I haven’t heard of them before. My parents weren’t married until after WW2 and my only knowledge of those times was through their memories. I have become more interested in WW1 since researching my family history and discovering some sad stories of family lost. So many young men, I’m now recording their stories so they are not forgotten. Thank you for this post.
