When the men returned home from the war and the years passed by, when they did get together and reunite each meeting was marked by fraternity, a few handshakes, a couple beers and singing of the auld war songs. Many of these were created by the subject of this biography...Corporal Jack Ayre of the Dumbells.

This is his story...and how he put smiles on the faces of so many men over so many years!
