The photograph was probably taken in the winter of 1914-15 while the newly formed 9 Battalion was in training at Aldershot. Note that there are no officers or NCOs amongst the group. Frederick is at the front in the middle holding a pipe.

During the restoration of the Astley Village Hall in 2000, this richly decorated book was discovered locked in its box. It had been untouched since 1920. It presents a moving and unique tribute to the men of the district who went off to war, often descsribing in their own words their experiences together with accompanying photographs. One of the contributors was my father, Lachlan MacPherson.
