58656: Letter from Albert Bromwich to his son

A letter written to be read to Gordon on his sixth birthday (23 July 1917) Albert died of wounds in France on 10th April 1918. Gordon kept this all his life, and I found it after he died in 1987.

Editor's Comment:
His name is erroneously spelt 'Bromwick' on his medal card, held by the National Archives.
