Two members of a military family have met in Italy recently. They are Sapper W.G.A .O’Leary and Private Eva Sedgwick, A.T.S./E.F.I., the son and daughter of Mrs Sedgwick, of Southgate Place, Pontefract. They met only a few hours after Private Sedgwick landed in Italy. It had been three years since they had last seen each other. Sapper O’Leary was a joiner for Wakefield Corporation before enlisting, and Private Sedgwick who has been in the Forces only a short time, worked at Wilkinsons, Pontefract.
