Such a handsome couple too!

Very lovely and interesting photos, like looking through a window into history. The uncertainty as to their future as the war drew to a conclusion must have played much on the young couples minds. It certainly leaves one thirsty for more information. Good luck with your search!

Thank you Mark!
I agree.
The groom has obviously survived the horrors of war so far , particularly on the Eastern front, to be able to marry his sweetheart.
I hope his survived the last few months!

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
