EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant death plaque commemorates the life and sacrifice of Private Frederick George Styles, service number 7134, of the 1st Battalion, Princess Charlotte of Wales (Royal Berkshire Regiment. Born in Lambeth, Surrey, and enlisting in London, Private Styles made the ultimate sacrifice during the early days of the First World War, on September 10, 1914, in France and Flanders. His residence at the time of his enlistment was listed as Battersea, Surrey. The inscription on the plaque, "Died of wounds," signifies that his death was not the result of a direct attack, but rather the painful and often prolonged consequences of the brutal trench warfare that characterized the Western Front. The death plaque, now a cherished historical artifact, bears the image of a solemn-looking St. George, the patron saint of England, holding a shield emblazoned with the cross of the Royal Berkshire Regiment. The regiment's motto, "Quo Fas et Gloria Ducunt," which translates to "Where duty and glory lead," is inscribed below the image, a poignant reminder of the selfless dedication and bravery exhibited by soldiers like Private Styles during the Great War. The plaque, produced by E. Carter Preston, is a testament to the enduring legacy of the men and women who served and sacrificed during the First World War. It serves as a reminder of the historical significance of the military regiments that played a crucial role in the conflict, and the unwavering commitment of individuals like Private Styles to their country and their comrades. This poignant artifact is a valuable addition to any collection of military history or World War I memorabilia.
