Description
Excerpt from Croydon and the Great War: The Official History of the War Work of the Borough and Its Citizens From 1914 to 1919; Together With the Croydon Roll of Honour
Englishmen stood shoulder to shoulder in this gigantic life-and-death struggle, and the blows England dealt were heavy with the weight of the whole nation.
Croydon sent men to the War, and of these, alas, never came back returned wounded, and they and the unwounded (the more fortunate remaining half of Croydon''s fighters) received many medals and honours for their bravery, besides having acquired the esteem and admiration of their fellow citizens.
