A Start

I guess I was influenced by the blog, WW1: Experiences of an English Soldier. Here, the author of the blog posts letters and pictures of his grandfather, Harry Lamin's time serving in the First World War.

I had posted a few things related to my great-grandfather, Jack Dow, on my blog, Ranting Owl. I decided to create this blog to tell his story and his experiences during the First World War. Another reason has to do with myself. In my family, my great-grandfather is an engima, not much is known about him. Even though my father and aunt where teenagers when he died, they weren't able to tell me much about him, especially about his time in the war. I've created this blog to discover these things about Jack Dow.
