OUR ROLL OF HONOUR.
He who fights well without being killed has not only more good fortune than those who lie dead on the field; he has also the same moral worth. The man who is hit is to be lamented. But he has no precedence over the survivor. German soldier.
We here publish what we hope will eventually be a complete list of all those patriotic and praiseworthy men of East Carmarthenshire who are doing military service for the welfare of the nation and the safety of the British Empire.
We shall be glad to receive intimation of the names of those numerous young men who have enlisted from this part of the county at recruiting stations beyond the possible sphere of our enquiries.
We shall be glad also of the names of all men who have been called up from the district to join the Colours, with particulars, if any, of their previous service with His Majesty's Forces, or of their ordinary occupation, the Regiments or the Ships they have joined, or are joining, together with any other items that may be of interest. No detail need be too insignificant to notice.
Letters from the Front will be welcomed, as well as particulars of all promotions from Lance-Corporal upwards, and the names and addresses of men who come home on leave.
All communications should be addressed to the Editor, Amman Valley Chronicle and East Carmarthen News, Quay Street , Ammanford.
