Ceremony in November
There are plans for a plaque to be unveiled which honours the Manx advocates and students of law who served their country in the First World War.
Advocate and Isle of Man Law Society Council Member Terence McDonald has been researching their history.
He thinks around 25% of the forty or so advocates who practiced here at the time went and fought.
Two, and one student of law, didn't survive the war.
Mr McDonald says the ceremony will take place later this year:
Overnight sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
