Visiting Imphal battlefields

Hi Skoyen89,

I think that the list from WO361/478 includes men lost mostly before they fought around Imphal. I tried matching up men to the dates 15/16 May, but only Pt. C.H. Dick fits that range and there doesn't seem to be a report for him in the file. So this document may not be of use in actual fact.

Best wishes

Steve

 

Thanks Bamboo and Skoyen.
The list is not of use in this case sadly.
I know the names of all the casualties and where they are buried (Imphal Cemetery) or commemorated (Rangoon Memorial). Obviously the ones on RM have no known grave and are the ones still on the Kanglatongbi Ridge apart from two unidentified who are in Imphal. I have narrowed these down to three possible men.
I'll start a new topic with this.
