Liz is Polish by descent. She was forced to work in German factories, leaving her young children at home alone. The family migrated to Australia in Liz and her brother were born here.

When I mentioned the poppy project to her, Liz immediately wanted to be involved as she saw it as a wonderful opportunity to show her thanks to Australia for providing a safe haven for her family, and where her parents could rebuild their lives in freedom and safety. Her parents worked hard, built a home and educated their four children.

The children grew up with plentiful food on the table, warm beds at night and a happy life that was carefree and lived without fear.

He was killed on 19 February His story can be found at http: Lt Adams was one of the first 5, to enlist in Melbourne shortly after war was declared. Harold was killed on 4 May — less than three months after his younger brother. They both served as airmen. After only a few months with the Squadron during the bitter winter, Harold and his observer Lt Pinson, were brought down behind enemy lines on 4 May. Pinson was seen to fire a coloured flare signifying that they would be forced to land. Other members of the Squadron observed them gliding down under control until quite low.

It is recorded in the Red Cross eye-witness accounts file A that Lt Pinson was wounded and that the pilot VH Adams removed his flying companion from the plane after landing. The pilot VH Adams set fire to his machine as instructed so that it did not fall into enemy hands. German soldiers arrived at that time and fired on the airman who raised his arms making to sign that he surrendered. He fell on his knees with his hands still raised but the German soldiers continued to fire on him. When the German officers arrived, they made the men to cease firing but Harold had already been killed.

The German soldiers took the injured Lt Pinson to hospital where he died. It is a pleasure to make and send crochet poppies to add to the efforts and respect of others to celebrate the end of WW1. They are all remembered but they leave gaps in the family tree. My own Dad served in NG. I know the cost of war! The ones who returned were never the same somehow, but they did their best.
