Our set and miniature sheet commemorate this important historical landmark.

It may be a little-known fact that a greater number of service personnel were gleaned from the Isle of Man to serve in the war then anywhere else in Britain when calculated by ‘per head of population’.
Of 8000 Manx personnel who took part in the conflict, 1200 did not return.

Letters Home concentrates on the personal stories of six Manx soldiers through historical documents and their own moving accounts of their experiences. Sheets of 6 stamps.

Our miniature sheet issue takes war memorials as its theme.
