Listen: How a Derry soldier's family were cast out after the war
Thomas Young was an orphan from Rosemount who was sent away to join the army. When the First World War broke out he encouraged other young local men to enlist, even helping them to train in nearby fields. Every one of them was killed at the Somme, leaving the area bereft.
