  • Cecil was in the Territorials so the 5th Battalion and served all through the war and was wounded two or three times. He was my grandfather, Robert Mockford’s, half brother. I remember him as a quiet old gentleman who had a couple of twisted bayonets that he used as candle holders in the trenches so he could read.
