St Pauls Catherdral was
an icon of the London Blitz
of World War 2.
Londoners maintained that
as long as
St Pauls survived
England would survive.
The Chapel of All Souls
is situated on the ground
floor of the north-west
tower of the Cathedral.
This Chapel was dedicated in
1925 to the memory of
Field Marshal Lord Kitchener
(1850-1916) and the servicemen
who died in the Great War of
1914-18
Safely housed inside the Cathedral
are the Honour Rolls of the
Commonwealth Engineer units of
World War 1.
The Rolls had been paid for by
public subscription in the
various countries –
England, Australia, Canada etc.
