Jersey's Great War heroes

Among those who died in horrific circumstances during the Great War was Jerseyman Lieutenant Frederick Stevenson, who rose through the ranks to obtain a commission and was killed in a raid on an enemy position - these were the medals he won during his service
The articles linked from this page were published by the Jersey Evening Post on 10 November 2018, the day before the 100th anniversary of the end of the Great War. They tell the stories of a number of Jerseymen and Jerseywomen who were distinguished by their bravery during the war.
