ARCHIVE REMEMBER: Doomed Youth

On November 11th 1998, the 80th anniversary of the Armistice, a new University War Memorial was dedicated in the Woolwich Island Site buildings; it is now in the south entrance to the Dreadnought Building.

To mark the Centenary, in National Archives week, we have produced a memorial poster for each of the lost.
