I attended Redditch County High School in the mid to late 1960s. I must have passed the World War 2 Roll of Honour board a thousand times without, I am ashamed to say, taking a great deal of notice of it. Today, I am proud to have been able to write the personal stories of each name on that board.

These were young men, some no more than boys, who served their country during those turbulent times. The book tells the stories of who they were, their school history, where they lived, where they served and fought and, ultimately, where they died. The book recognises those brave young men as the heroes they are, such that present and future generations, particularly those who attend, or will attend, the school, now renamed Trinity High School, will appreciate, respect and honour the sacrifices made by these men, and not simply walk past the board in the way that I did over 50 years ago.
