YOUNG people have been remembering those who gave their lives in the 1914-18 Great War. Air Cadets in Dartmouth, under the leadership of Warrant Officer Keith Langworthy, commemorated the centenary of the start of the First World War by scrubbing and cleaning the nine headstones in St Clement's churchyard for servicemen who were killed in the bloody conflict. They also generally tidied the churchyard around the graves. Warrant Officer Langworthy said the cadets had wanted to commemorate the war heroes and they thought this was a fitting way to remember them. Dartmouth vicar Fr Will Hazlewood said prayers with the cadets, who then planted wooden poppy crosses on each grave. Earlier this the year, Dartmouth Girl Guides and Brownies also worked hard by planting tubs of flowers and poppies in front of the church hall as an act of remembrance. Churchyard secretary Sheila Boswell said: 'On behalf of the Friends of St Clement's Churchyard, we would like to thank the youth organisations of the town for all the hard work they have put in to mark this very important anniversary. 'Volunteers Les Barnes and his wife Sue have planted a red geranium on each grave in memory of the fallen during the First World War, and Lew Langworthy and Brian Parker, our regular volunteers, do a magnificent job all-year round to keep the churchyard a place for peace and quiet reflection.'
