For my grandfather -Cornishman John Arthur Kellow, a Private in the 4th Battalion of the Dorsetshire Regiment. He gave all, when he was killed in action near Caen on the 25th July 1944, his life cut short at only 26 years of age. He was loved and dearly missed by all his family. He did his duty then, just as it is our duty now .. to always remember them.
