12003 Pte. Herbert Noel THOMAS

[HERITAGE PLUS]

Would appreciate further info on this soldier who is commemorated on the Poziers Memorial having lost his life on 26 April 1918.

I have the CWGC details. Particularly interested in the battalion wherabouts at the time of his death.

also I am curious why you chose the townland 'Aughnahoe' which means the field of the cave.

Ask your local library to get you a copy of 'Terriers in the Trenches' by Charles Messenger, a history of the POR in WW1.
