Walter's Story

Walter was my father's elder brother. We understand he fought at Gallipoli and was captured. He died in a Turkish Prison. We do not have any other details., apart from a black & white photo of the grave-we don't know where this is.

We remember Walter with fondness. We have photo's of him as a child and in uniform and he looked a great chap!
