A family relative recently gave me this clipping of a poem sent home to my grandmothers sister, Edith Armstrong (nee Chambers) I did a bit of research and found out that it was linked to a Soldier in one of the Roll of Honour books belonging to my grandmother. John J Chambers, Enlisted to the 2nd Australian Pioneers (Mining Corps) He was a Carter by trade on enlisting, he was wounded in the right shoulder and medically retired. You will see from one of the pictures that he carries his arm to the side of his body. https://discoveringanzacs.naa.gov.au/browse/records/192339
