Thomas Terry 250th Siege Battery Royal Garrison Artillery I found this Concert Party programme in an old box. I know very little about my Grandfather, Thomas Terry, but remember him with affection. My image from childhood is of him sitting with the Racing Post studying form and tickling me from time to time. He died some time in the sixties. I was twelve or thirteen at the time and considered too young to attend a funeral. His younger son, my uncle Steve, moved to the USA, taking all the family photos with him and they have since been lost, so I was delighted to open your site and find a picture of him on your page devoted to the 250th Siege Battery. I think he is the chap on the right along with his friend Wilf, because I do remember a picture of him that looked rather similar to this hanging in my grandparents' house in Surrey, where he ended his days, equidistant between 3 racecourses. I find it remarkable that this concert was organised in France, presumably under fire, at Christmas 1918 and that so much care was taken to make it presentable, complete with Art Deco layout. Even more remarkable that he ever did a song and dance routine to entertain the troops! I hope that it may be of interest to people researching other members of the Concert party.
