My grandfather John Eadie was lost on 2nd April 1916 when his minesweeper HMS Commandant struck a mine at Lowestoft.
The letter he sent to my mother was probably written the Christmas before he died. He refers to Zeppelins and he died the day they attacked Leith.

He was a Leith man who married a Newhaven woman and lived in Newhaven at the time he died.  The Family wrote letters to say they were OK, but he had died the same day.

title: Letter from Dr W.R. Blore M.C. RAMC (4)

description: This is what remains of a long letter from Dr W.R. Blore M.C. RAMC sent on 11th Feb 1916, from Egypt to his Mother. It describes the monotony of life there after the evacuation from Suvla Bay, Gallipoli, about his trips to the dentist, trips to Alex [Alexandria] to the officers' clubs there. There is also the description of an officer's notification of the award of the M.C. at Suvla Bay - and how many M.O.s [medical officers] seem to 'make a hobby of going out to [the] wounded when any normal man would get killed as soon as he showed himself...' [The Military Cross was awarded to Blore himself.] Blore continues weighing up the risks to the many of an ambulance or medical staff being lost in these ventures. He describes his actions on 21st August when he was with a stretcher party which came under fire from snipers or from the trenches, quite a few of his comrades were hit, and Blore feels partly responsible for this.

Blore also describes his work during the landings at Suvla Bay - in the dressing station. The landing itself - at the wrong beach is also mentioned including the resulting march with their stores to the right location. Page 8 includes a small sketch of Suvla Bay and the location of the dressing stations etc. as well as his first experiences of being bombed.

Also part of this collection are all Blore's letters home, his notebooks from his service as a doctor at Suvla Bay, Gallipoli, and on the Western Front - as well as his sleeping bag and many other artefacts including a photo of Blore outside his dugout at Suvla Bay.

title: Liquidator shaking at location D5D6

description: Tests were conducted at Hornsby Bend Site, Austin, TX, from 11/7/2007 to 11/9/2007.  Liquidator was used a seismic source along Test point D5D6.  (Please see 2007-11 Experiment_setup.pdf file for sensors and shaker locations.)  

The purpose of this experiment was to find out the distribution of soil's material properties (Elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio). According to the experiment setup, this is a 3D experiment and a 3D inversion code is required to process the recorded data.

Due to the 3D nature of the experiment, loads and sensors can be positioned at arbitrary locations. Please see 2010 experiments which produces data that may be processed by 2D codes.

title: T-Rex shaking along Line A

description: Tests were conducted at Hornsby Bend Site, Austin, TX, from 10/26/2010 to 11/5/2010.  Liquidator was used a seismic source along Test Line C.  (Please see 2010-10 Experiment_setup.pdf file for sensors and shaker locations.)  

The purpose of this experiment is to find out the distribution of soil's material properties (Elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio). The experiment is carefully designed in such a way that obtained results may be processed by 2D codes. Basically, in order to generate 2D conditions in a field (plane strain conditions) one needs to apply "line loads" that extend to infinity. However, this is not practical. Therefore, these "line loads" are replaced by point sources with appropriate spacing. In the end, we may use a 2D inversion code to process these data.

title: Poem written by G. Pocock

description: My late father and his four brtohers all went through the first world war, my father being recruited from Landguard fort, Suffolk, and sent to Scotland. He was in dugouts under the Forth rail bridge on the Leith (south) side of the river. There he took turns in manning the guns, one on Inchcolm, one on Inchkeith, and one on Inchmickery, and had to take turns in driving out to each island with supplies for the men. He wrote this poem during he service in Inchkeith. Afterwards, he was sent to Africa, being stationed in Freetown in the Orange Free State. He was later invalided back to England and spent some time in the spa waters of Bath, which were a daily routine until his joints were working again. He was later sent to Gorleston-on-Sea, Norfolk, and had lodgings in Springfield Road and 2, Victoria Road. He took turns in manning the anti-aircraft gun on the cliffes at Gorleston seafront, and was on duty the morning the Armistice was signed. The gun was sited on what is now a patch of grass in front of the Gables nursing home. 

Editor's Comment:
Poem written by Gunner Pocock while stationed in the Firth of Fourth forts, defending the naval habour of Rosyth. Transcribed by his daughter, Miss Jean Pocock.
