Lytchett Matravers villagers who served in the Armed Services during 1939-45
This list was compiled by Shirley Percival from Royal British Legion Records and others with the invaluable help of Beau Parke,
Roy Hannam, Stan Hannam, Mrs P Crumpler and Harold Cox. Their apologies for any omissions, which they feel there almost
certainly must be; they apologise for any errors, ditto; but they make no apologies that they have tried their best to include
all those they can and to remember them.
