The City of Glasgow Police War Memorials

We are happy to announce the publication of the City of Glasgow Police War Memorial booklet.

The memorials to the Glasgow Police are on display in the Glasgow Police Museum, and Research Group members John and Margaret Houston have been researching the names listed on the memorial.

We are please to publish their research,and we would like to congratulate them on their hard work.

The research has been published through online "print on demand" site Lulu, and is available in downloadable pdf format.

Hello again!

We haven't updated the Blog for quite some time. You might have noticed...

As we do this in our spare time and family and work life takes up a substantial amount of what is left we found ourselves unable to keep up with the On This days and Who's Whos. 

We have also been using Twitter and Facebook as a way of passing on our news, which has been quite successful in spreading the news of what is happening in the world of Scottish military history.  

But the poor old forlorn Blog deserves better than suspended animation so we'll endeavour to start using it again when we have some news worth sharing. 

This week we most definitely have news worth sharing; we have got three new rolls of honour to launch and since they are all related to Glasgow we thought we'd have a "Glasgow Week".

Every day until Saturday 23rd February we'll use Twitter and Facebook to try and share the following:

• A Glaswegian listed on the Glasgow Roll of Honour 1914-1918  
• A Glaswegian listed on the Glasgow Roll of Honour 1939-1945  
  
• A Glaswegian buried in Glasgow and recorded on the Scottish War Graves Project  
• A Glasgow war memorial  
• A Glasgow roll of honour  
• A Glasgow built warship launched on this day in history  
• A website relating to Glasgow's military or naval history  
• A video relating to Glasgow's military or naval history

Plus we'll send out anything else we find of interest relating to Glasgow and hopefully we'll get some interaction and be able to pass on other people's contribution to #Glasgow Week.
