In The Guards

Enjoying life in the Life Guards immensely is Trooper Wilfred Bartram of 59, White Lee Road, Swinton.

He has been serving just over a year before which he was employed on the L.N.E. Railway. Wilfred is very interested in swimming and cricket and “we trounce the Grenadiers every week” he says, in a recent letter. Trooper Barton receives the “Times” every week.
