A lovely thread by Áine about the cross planting this morning and its significance for the project.
Wonderful to have made it this morning. I joined the ptoject in 2015 and laying that final cross today was something like closure on the centenary for me. I was also interested to find that Douglas lived not far from me on Ruthven street!

@GlasgowUniWW1 @AHAllardyce @ELoarridge @UofGWarstudies Guys...found this on one of our men, 2nd Lt Hugh Wilson. Newspaper clipping mentions @UofGlasgow might be worth looking into as he doesn’t appear to be on the boards..
And here’s @ELoarridge introducing them to us! #womenandwar
We’re seeing some wonderful short videos created with @GlasgowUniWW1 starring women and their voices at the fore! What we’ve seen so far is really powerful! #womenandwar

Wonderful to have made it this morning. I joined the ptoject in 2015 and laying that final cross today was something like closure on the centenary for me. I was also interested to find that Douglas lived not far from me on Ruthven street!
Today, on a suitably beautiful morning, we had a small gathering to commemorate Lt. Col. Douglas Wilson. The last of 780 individuals Commemorated by the University Memorial Chapel. We planted our final cross in the memorial garden which we have slowly built up over since 2014.

Today, on a suitably beautiful morning, we had a small gathering to commemorate Lt. Col. Douglas Wilson. The last of 780 individuals Commemorated by the University Memorial Chapel. We planted our final cross in the memorial garden which we have slowly built up over since 2014.
It was a privilege to witness the final @UofGlasgow @GlasgowUniWW1 Project commemoration. On the centenary of each of UofG’s community to lose their life in #WW1 they have been remembered in our Chapel by @stuartmacq and a cross placed in the memorial garden. #LestWeForget

@GlasgowUniWW1 @AHAllardyce @ELoarridge @UofGWarstudies Guys...found this on one of our men, 2nd Lt Hugh Wilson. Newspaper clipping mentions @UofGlasgow might be worth looking into as he doesn’t appear to be on the boards..
And here’s @ELoarridge introducing them to us! #womenandwar
We’re seeing some wonderful short videos created with @GlasgowUniWW1 starring women and their voices at the fore! What we’ve seen so far is really powerful! #womenandwar
@GlasgowUniWW1 would it be possible to make use of your biography of Donald Kerr, KIA 1/7/16? He's one of the men on the Clerical Medical war memorial that I'm researching.
Its 9pm and over 21k figures are encamped on the battlefield with more still to arrive. Thank you to everyone who has followed us over the day and we hope that you stick with us tomorrow as @WatRepFrench faces down @WatRepAllied in #waterlooreplayed the world's largest Wargame.
It costs @DigWaterloo £2,500 a year to support the recovery of a single veteran. #Waterlooreplayed is all about raising funds for the charity. Any donation, however small goes towards giving serving personnel and veterans this life changing opportunity. waterloouncovered.com/donate/
Just booked the perfect Father's Day present for my dad who has always painted Waterloo Miniatures. Can't wait to see the matte replayed in Glasgow on Sunday.
Tickets for #waterlooreplayed can be acquired from tinyurl.com/Balconytickets, there is also a @WaterlooReplay Study Day tomorrow: tinyurl.com/y4lpcgvs and a special Night at the @hunterian tinyurl.com/y5qwm5sj
