Ernest's inscription and tribute
Ernest Bolt
1/2
Ernest was a Private in the 9th Battalion King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry (KOYLI) when he died in April 1918. He has no known grave, and is commemorated on the Tyne Cot Memorial to the Missing.
His medal card shows that he was awarded the Victory, British and 14 Star medals, which mean that he had been serving overseas since 1914.
We visited Ernest's memorial in August 2014, and laid his tribute. Tyne Cot Memorial to the Missing lists the name of over 30,000 men who's final resting places are not known.
