Excerpt from Tales of War
He said: "There were only twenty houses in Daleswood. A place you would scarcely have heard of. A village up top of the hills.
"When the war came there was no more than thirty men there between sixteen and forty-five. They all went.
"They all kept together; same battalion, same platoon. They was like that in Dales-wood. Used to call the hop pickers foreigners, the ones that come from London. They used to go past Daleswood, some of them, every year, on their way down to the hop fields. Foreigners they used to call them. Kept very much to themselves did the Daleswood people. Big woods all round them.
