I was taking some more photographs of remembrance poppies at the local
cemetery today when I came across this scene...

I did a little digging around on the internet and it turns out they were
indeed two brothers killed within three days of each other in April 1917 at
Arras during the first world war. It must have been a very bleak time for
their parents.
