In Grateful Memory of the Men of the Parish of Rockcliffe and Cargo And
In grateful memory of the Men of the Parish of Rockcliffe and Cargo and of this district who lost their lives in the service of their country in the Great War and in World War Two, and of their comrades who returned, having done their duty manfully. It is not the critic that counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or whether the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena…. who strives…. who spends himself…. and who at worst, if he fails, at least he fails in daring, so that his place will never be with those timid souls who know nothing of either victory or defeat. At the going down of the sun, And in the morning We will remember them. A cross of sacrifice stands in all Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemeteries on the Western Front. The War Memorial of the Parish of Rockcliffe and Cargo. It is 2010. In far off Afghanistan young men and women of various nations are putting their lives at risk as they struggle to defeat a tenacious enemy. We receive daily reports of the violent death of some while still in their teens. Others, of whom we hear little, are horribly maimed for life. We here, in the relative safety of the countries we call The British Isles, are free to discuss from our armchair or pub stool the rights and wrongs of such a conflict. That right of free speech, whatever our opinion or conclusion, was won for us by others, others who are not unlike today’s almost daily casualties of a distant war.

Mr Keating’s immense capacity for the necessary research along with the Chairman’s endorsement and encouragement for the project was realised through the generosity of member Nicholas and Lynne Gould. The book was received in to the Club on the occasion of a commemorative service at St James’s Church, Piccadilly in September 2014 to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War. Second World War members were researched and added in 2016 along with the appendices, which highlights some of the episodes and influences that involved our members in both conflicts. In October 2016, along with over 190 other organisations representing clubs, livery companies and the military, the club contributed a flagstone of our crest to the gardens of remembrance at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire.

As we move into the final year of the centenary of the end of WW1 our head guide Paul Reed has created a selection of special anniversary event tours plus new tours covering some of the major final campaign battles. We also have an expanded collection of WW2 tours some of which cover historical events around the end of the war and the aftermath of the Cold War. Further afield we are pleased to introduce a brand new Vietnam tour covering the harrowing events of that long campaign. Ian Henry, Chief Executive, Leger Holidays Inspirational journeys of Remembrance and Discovery Visiting battlefields from the two World Wars remains a fascinating, rewarding and moving experience. A century after WW1 and some 75 years since WW2, the debt we owe to those generations remains strong and the legacy of Remembrance they have left us prompts many who travel on our Battlefield Tours to ask more: who is the solider in that faded photo at home? What was that name on the local war memorial? What did grandad do, and how did his war fit into the bigger picture? Villy La Ferté 1940 These are just the sort of questions Passchendaele is a good example myself and my team of dedicated of this: think of this battle and one Specialist Battlefield Guides (see imagines a lunar landscape of page 6) get asked on a typical water-filled shell holes on a rain Leger Battlefield Tour.

NEWSLETTER WINTER 2020 COMMEMORATIVE DINNER MARKING THREE IMPORTANT EDWIN LUTYENS ANNIVERSARIES AT RIBA, LONDON Wednesday, 2 October, 2019 By Robin H Prater, Executive Director, The Lutyens Trust America The celebration of the 150th anniversary of the birth of Sir Edwin Lutyens by The Lutyens Trust was an evening to remember. The reception and dinner, which also commemorated the 75th anniversary of his death and the centenary of the inauguration of the Cenotaph, were held at the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) at Portland Place in London. The atmosphere was festive and welcoming as well over 200 people from various walks of life and countries — including a large Lutyens Trust America contingent — came together to celebrate the great architect and his achievements. The Trust’s new President, HRH the Duke of Gloucester, with Dr Anna Keay, Director of The Landmark Trust, at the anniversary dinner © The Lutyens Trust Photographic Archive 1 The programme for the evening was bookended by the Co-chairmen of The Trust, Martin Lutyens and Ludovic de Walden. Their welcome and thanks gave a small insight into the number of people and amount of time involved in planning for an event of this magnitude. And their efforts certainly paid off as the reception and dinner were lovely from start to finish. A number of owners of Lutyens’s buildings are members of the Trust and an appreciation of their care of these important designs and generosity in Jill Pittaway with incoming Lutyens Trust Chairman, allowing the Trust to visit them from Ludovic de Walden © The Lutyens Trust time to time was expressed.

Ley and Lois Smith War, Memory and Popular Culture Research
Ley and Lois Smith War, Memory and Popular Culture Research Collection Department of History The University of Western Ontario INTRODUCTION The collection is a diverse assortment of archival materials, microforms, published and printed documents, and secondary sources relating to the cultural dimensions of conflict and the collective memory of war. Its holdings, which might be broadly defined as ephemera, are strongest in a number of areas: • popular culture artifacts • materials relating to veterans organizations • children’s literature and educational materials relating to war history • military training and instructional manuals • wartime publications • materials relating to prisoners of war There are also a large number of personal files that vary in their content. Some contain a long range of correspondence or other material, while others contain a single image or artifact. The original materials in the collection are eclectic, and reflect the manner in which they have been gathered. The emphasis has not been on a coherent acquisitions policy, but rather on preserving materials that might otherwise have been lost. Visits to the collection are by appointment only. Researchers who are unable to visit the archives in person may in certain circumstances be able to purchase photocopies of selected materials. For further information, please contact: Jonathan F.
