73567 Pte Thomas Harrison, 2nd Bn, RWF

Sixty-two British Army officers and men died on the 5th December 1918, and Thomas Harrison of Wigan was one of these men. He died of wounds whilst serving with the 2nd Battalion Royal Welsh Fusiliers. He is buried in Etaples Military Cemetery and was almost certainly a late entry - 1917 or 1918 - into the war.

At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.
