Four of my family, on both sides, were in that. Two to the Arctic, two to the Malta run. Horrendous.

MY grandfather was in the Canadian Black Watch, funny place for an Irishman, and his brother was in the Newfoundland Regiment.

Grandpa was gassed at 2nd Ypers and my Great Uncle was wounded 2 hours before the armistice. They both said the war sucked but nothing sucked worse than the Battery Acid Limey tea.
