William Robert Meek
British Army Durham Light Infantry
from:Newburn, Northumberland
William Robert Meek was born in 1896. He went to war and it took him 3 tries to get in, twice his Dad went and got him out, the 3rd time his Dad said let him go. He became a prisoner of war, and he had been wounded. When I asked where he had been wounded his reply was, in the bottom. I asked, how was he wounded in that area, his reply was, like all the others I were running away.
