Richmond Alexander Peter Moore
Facts and Events
Image Gallery
'Photo album' collage of two historical photographs, neither dated nor signed, each one showing the two brothers, Richmond Alexander (Alec) Peter Moore and Robert (Robbie) William Alfred Moore at two distinct times in their lives. The first (with Robbie on the left and Alec on the right), when they were both schoolboys - and probably shown here at their prep-school. And the second (with Alec on the left in top hat and Robbie on the right in army uniform), when they were both adult men. Alec probably already working as a schoolmaster, like his father. And Robert, as indicated by his uniform, already a Captain with the Royal Artillery. And probably not very long before he would be deployed to France, where he arrived at Cherbourg on the 3rd April 1940 - as part of the British Espeditionat Force (BEF).
