I love these articles Dave. The history of the breed interests me so much! Amazing the funeral they gave him he even had his own coffin.

Wasn't it you that posted about Watchman V and the regiment disbanding ??? Was searching and searching yesterday and couldn't find a follow up but emailed the Staffordhire Regiment muiseum yesterday to see if they can tell us

Posted 2 or 3 more things yesterday just search "Watchman" and you'll find some nice pics Big Grin
