14th January 2024 is the 108th anniversary of the death of Pte Joe Strudwick of the 8th Battalion the Rifle Brigade (the Prince Consort´s Own). He died in action at Boezinge in Belgium, aged 15 years and 11 months. He is remembered for being one of the youngest casualties of World War One. This is his story, but also the story of other Teenage Tommies, and those who served well into their 70s and 80s, and those who died at the start of the war, and, as the conflict drew to a close - in an episode entitled The Young, Old, First & Last.
