A soft sorrow of Remembrance fills the fine lines between allegiance and duty. For those who went to war, their lives might have been bright with futures and a family.
Now their sacrifice makes it all the more harder to bear. As the Commonwealth War Graves Commission urges people to share their stories, such loss is brought to life like never before. There’s Nora Caveney, a cotton bobbin winder from Todmorden, who was the first ATS service woman to be killed in the Second World War. Lt James Trevor Riley, captain of his school cricket team in Halifax, whose father was sent hundreds of letters detailing his kindness and bravery after his death.

The stories come thick and fast, submitted from across the county.
