Introduction

This site contains letters from my great, great uncle Lieutenant Percy Smith to his old headmaster and Gracie (The headmasters daughter). These letters were found in an old binder in a bookcase that had not been opened for years when my grandmother was having her house redecorated.
There are now some letters sent home Clarence Propst who was in the American Tank Corps near the end of the First World War. These letters were sent in by Kerry Fleming. If you have any letters from anyone who was in the Great War please send them to me by email.
