The great majority of the fallen of WWI were members of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers - the casualties of the great battles of Mametz Wood, Ypres and Cambrai. Two of the five killed in WWII fell in the Italian Campaign and another in the liberation of Brussels by the Welsh Guards in Sept. 1944, after an advance of 100 miles in one day in what was described as 'an armoured lash unequalled for speed in this or any other war'
