Union Dinner card relating to Charles Woodward Carr (2)

Card from The 2/5th Battalion, The Gloucestershire Regiment Association, 23rd Re-Union Dinner at Star Hotel Cheltenham, Saturday October 13th 1951.

This is just one menu card from the many reunions attended by Charles W. Carr before his death in a car accident 18 Sept 1965 at Wickhamford, Worcestershire. He had moved to Llandrindod Wells after the war, then moved to Broadway Worcestershire in 1953.

This menu card is autographed by friends, and has a pressed flower attached. This card, like all the others, includes the poem "Here's a health to every brother in arms" by 2nd Liet. F.W. Harvey, DCM of 2/5 Glo'shire Regt. Tony Carr, Charles' son, recalls that sons were allowed to attend these reunions - which he did do.

Part of large collection of photos and memoribilia relating to Serjeant 3091 (later 240965) Charles Woodward Carr, 2/5th Battalion Gloucestershire Regiment - kept by Mrs Gill Porter and Mr Tony Carr of their father.

此菜单卡乃是查尔斯·W·卡尔（Charles W. Carr）生前参与的众多团聚活动之一的纪念遗存，他最终于1965年9月18日在伍斯特郡威克汉姆福德（Wickhamford, Worcestershire）的一场车祸中不幸离世。战后他迁居至兰德林多德韦尔斯（Llandrindod Wells），并于1953年搬迁至伍斯特郡百老汇（Broadway Worcestershire）。
该菜单卡留有友人的亲笔签名，并附有一枚压花标本。与其余同类藏品一致，此卡印有第2/5格洛斯特郡团（2/5 Glo'shire Regt.）的DCM勋章获得者F·W·哈维中尉（2nd Liet. F.W. Harvey, DCM）所作诗歌《敬献每一位袍泽》（"Here's a health to every brother in arms"）。查尔斯之子托尼·卡尔（Tony Carr）回忆称，当时允许子女参与这类团聚活动，而他本人也确实到场参与过。
此藏品乃是格洛斯特郡团第2/5营军士3091号（后变更为240965号）查尔斯·伍德沃德·卡尔（Charles Woodward Carr）的大量照片与纪念藏品集合中的一件，由吉尔·波特夫人（Mrs Gill Porter）与托尼·卡尔先生（Tony Carr）代为保管，二人皆是卡尔的子女。
