MY ADOPTED SOLDIER TRIP 2017 - Applications now closed
In June 2017, a group of students from both Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland will join students from Liebigschule, Frankfurt am Main in a project to remember soldiers from both sides who died in the Ypres region of Belgium in World War One.
Fifteen Students have now been chosen to represent Ireland & Northern Ireland and and we are delighted to welcome a further fifteen students, selected from Liebigschule in Frankfurt. Each student shall be given the name of a soldier who died in Flanders from his/her local area. Students will then carry out research on his/her soldier just as students did on the first trip to the Somme in 2015.
We look forward to adding these new stories to our Archive
Thanks to all the students & teachers invloved in the project so far, and for more informatiuon on the up-coming trip please stay tuned to myadoptedsoldier.com
