IN MEMORY OF...

...THOSE TOWN SERVANTS WHO DIED ON THIS DAY

May 11

1918
Aged 26

Harry STRANGER
A bank clerk by profession, Harry made just one appearance for the club, scoring in a 3-3 draw with West Ham reserves in September 1914. He was then called up for War duty, becoming a lieutenant in the Royal Guernsey Light Infantry. Awarded the Military Cross for gallantry, Harry sadly died from his injuries on returning to his home in the Channel Islands.
