No worry. This is the type of archival info we want to fill in Highlanders files. We will work on his bio now. I have edited his rank for now. I’m at the cottage and our wifi is not as strong as at home so I couldn’t get into his Library and Archives file.

If you take a look at some of the other soldiers bios…from that period you will see at the top of the page we summarize his service and his life before and after in a couple of paras and at the top put a couple of highlights. If you want feel free to draft something on him and I will add it in. I don’t think it will let you send pix this way but if you send them to me at rgelms@mac.com I’ll insert them into his page.
