CAMBRAI - Guernseymen and The Great War - An exhibition to commemorate the 90th Anniversary of the Battle of Cambrai in the First World War during which 40% of men in the Royal Guernsey Light Infantry were either killed, wounded or listed as missing.

It was the end of a generation and the huge losses shocked the island to its core. The exhibition gives an overview of the Great War and focuses on the role of the Royal Guernsey Light Infantry within the conflict.

The Channel Islands Great War Study Group has worked with the Museums Service in collating and supplying information for the exhibition.

Pictures of the set

Mike and Rosemarie Thomas have spent many years photographing cemeteries and headstones in Belgium, France and Jersey. They have also researched the personal details of the soldiers found.

Their cooperation is enabling us to add a wealth of detail to the Jersey Roll of Honour.

Family information in both Rolls of Honour has recently been expanded greatly. This work continues.
