We recently showed a great picture of a pair of bikers from Flowery Field, the picture was sent in by Roger... We were lucky as Roger also asked if we would be interested in these pictures of Tom Marsden...
We were more than pleased to show them.. and thought they would make the perfect post for Remembrance Sunday.. I'm sure we will all have someone to think back on today.. and wherever you are, and whoever you are remembering may this day be a peaceful one for you.
Driver Tom Marsden
Smart Flowery Field Patriot.
Left Southampton October 6th, 1914, for Zeebrugge, and was in action near Ypres.
I was able to send Roger a bit of information from the Hyde At War book as Tom Marsden was mentioned.. Roger said Tom would have hated leaving for Southampton on that particular day, Oct 6th as the following day was his daughter's birthday, she would have only been 3 or 4.
Very nice post, Tom.
