Great War Ephemera

This creased piece of paper has survived 90 years, including some 3 years inside Jack's pay book. The wording might sound a bit 'old fashioned' to us now, but the content has a lesson for us all, even today I think. You might be going into the greatest sh*tfight thus far known to mankind, but that is no reason to throw off common decency and respect for others. Grandad Jack was, from my memories, an exemplar of the behaviour cited above; I never heard him disrespect anyone, as would be expected maybe from the son of a Wesleyan lay preacher.
