STOP PRESS: This site is run from CANADA by ONE MAN called Mike, whose interest is that his grandfather fought with the DCLI in the Boer War and WW I. Mike has done this site for US. We owe him a huge debt of gratitude. Mile has a high powered job, and 3 children he has to get through school and college. He cannot afford to do everything, either in terms of time or money. He has also had to PAY out of his own pocket to keep this site going for 5 years. Now the good news (hopefully): In my various capacities, I am trying to get this site up and running in the UK. I shall be contacting all LI Association Branches, asking for their support in doing this. If YOU do NOT belong to an LI Branch, then join one now. I need YOUR support if five years of really excellent work by a Canadian called Mike, who has never been in the Light Infantry but has done it for love and as a remembrance of his Grandfather, is not to go down the pan. Mike has agreed to try and keep the site open until I can take it over. If one day you find the site closed, keep looking regularly, because we might have to close it down in Canada before we can re-open it in UK. YOUR SUPPORT IS VITAL. I hope I can count on YOU, just like we have counted on Mike for five years.
