In Commemoration Of The 100Th Anniversary Of The Battle Of The Somme: David John Campbell Ireland Of The 2Nd Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders

The Thiepval Memorial to the Missing was unveiled on 1 August 1932 and the pilgrimage to the Somme battlefields of France would be different this time. Generations to come would remember the Somme and would make much of this memorial to the dead. But on this day, and in this crowd, all minds were focused on but a single thought; of that name, that face, that voice which had once been dear to them and now was lost forever. This is just one commemoration of the life of Private David John Campbell Ireland of the 2nd Battalion of the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders who fell here at the Somme on 31 October 1916.
