Letter from Albert Bromwich to his wife

Leter written to Beatrice describing his wounds and illness, from which he was soon to die. It is incorrectly dated 1917. Found with his son's belongings in 1987.

Editor's Comment:
Letter written on Y.M.C.A. headed notepaper: 'On Active Service With the British Expeditionary Force'.

His name is erroneously spelt 'Bromwick' on his medal card, held by the National Archives.

Private 356170 Albert J. Bromwich, 2nd Battalion Highland Light Infantry, died of wounds 10th April 1918. The son of Oliver and Sarah Bromwich, of Two Mile Hill, Kingswood, Bristol, and husband of Beatrice Bromwich, of 533, Bath Rd., Brislington, Bristol, he is buried in Etaples Military Cemetery.

致碧翠丝的书信，信中记述了他的伤情与病情，他不久便因上述伤情与病情离世。该书信标注的日期为1917年，实为谬误。1987年，该书信于其儿子的遗物中被发现。

编辑注释：
该书信使用基督教青年会（Young Men's Christian Association，Y.M.C.A.）信笺书写，信笺印有文字：「随英国远征军执行现役任务」。

其勋章卡由英国国家档案馆（National Archives）馆藏，卡上他的姓名被误拼为「Bromwick」。
