    There are 13 RAAF deaths recorded in Hungary. If anyone is able to take photos of these headstones or knows anybody that can, please let me know.

    Cheers

    Hi Kyle and Martin,


    I do have them and they are high res however in the middle of winter and quite dark.

    Martin, I do have them (copy attached). If it is not too much trouble I would appreciate some lighter shots. They would be great for comparison and the stones may have been cleaned.

  6. Here they are today from the 100th Remembrance day ceremony - a cloudy day after many sunny ones but legible...

  7. One needs a sunny morning for the best light given the direction the headstones face.....this morning was the first overcast one for quite a while which was unfortunate...
