TO HELP us mark the centenary of the start of the First World War, The Gazette is looking for people with a connection to the war to tell their stories.
Thousands from the borough gave their lives and, though there are now no living veterans, it is important not to forget their incredible sacrifices.
If you have any stories, memorabilia or photos to share, please email newsdesk@basingstokegazette.co.uk or call 01256 337409.
