Hi all,
I've been revisiting my research notes abt the EAGLES family from Littledean cum Cinderford Eagles, and especially my findings within the old newspapers via the BNA site. As well as several mentions of the work of PC Eagles as reported by Mike in an earlier post, I also found this small-ad which I need to follow-up, wonder who he is ?

"H Company, 2nd Volunteer Battalion Gloucester Regiment, would like hear anyone having Gymnasium Outfit for Sale. Communicate with Corporal W. Eagles, Cinderford. R.S.O."
Wednesday 7 October 1903 , Gloucester Citizen.

Meanwhile, please can anyone advise what R.S.O means, is it similar to RSVP ?

Many thanks, Jeff.

PS Also, ref WW1 soldier Bert Eagles who I mentioned on previous post, I've just relaised he's shown on this WW2 photo of Cinderford Home Guard, middle of picture wearing glasses, looks so much like his grandson and my friend Phil !.
