Cpl. James William Riddell
British Army. 171st Tunnelling Company Royal Engineers
from:Nuneaton, Wawrickshire
Our family has only just become aware that my great grandad, James Riddell received a mention in dispatches on 1st July 1919 for gallant and distinguished services in the field. We have found the dispatches note and would really love to get extra information about 171 company and the war and also anything about him. If you have any other information about 171 we would really like to know more.
