2nd Bn, Royal Berkshire Regiment - A black and white photo of the consecration of the recently erected headstone, at a cemetery in Dover in 1995, on the grave of L/Corporal House who won the Victoria Cross during the Boer War; despite the fact that he had a full military funeral when he died in 1910, no headstone was erected then as, suffering badly from the pain of the wounds he had received some 8 years previously when he won the VC, he had committed suicide. In the photo, the Padre is Joe Bell and wreaths are being laid by Brigadier Roden and WO2 Mallinson
