This book was written to commemorate the men and women of Hickling who served in His Majesty’s Armed Services during the two world wars. It is divided into two sections; “Our Honoured Dead” and “They Also Served”.

The first section deals with “Our Boys” who lost their lives, some buried far from home, some being returned to be buried in St. Mary’s Churchyard. Some were never recovered, but were commemorated on memorials both in Hickling and farther afield where they fell.

The second section records the stories of the survivors, those who returned home, in some cases after suffering terrible wounds, and in many instances suffering the privations of armed conflict and some being held prisoner of war. It also documents all those from Hickling who served this country in the armed services, both men and women.

This Book is dedicated to them all.........

"We will remember them"
