Hidden safely in a waterproof bag is a family keepsake. Jennifer Gleadle handles it with care.
Gleadle’s sister put it together, deciphering what Gleadle calls, with a smile, some “terrible” handwriting.
It’s a booklet filled with their father’s diary entries from when he served in the Second World War, typed out and bound, with some loose black-and-white photographs in a plastic bag tucked between the pages.
Private Robert Creighton Durno of the No. 2 Section B7
