    Hi Paul,
    Thanks for posting these.
    I have just joined this site as I am researching My Great Uncle Richard Sewart who was 2nd regiment RAC who died in the battle of Kohima. I have just read Fergal Keanes Book- "the road of bones" as a starting point to understand what happened at Kohima and ultimately my intention is to visit Richards War grave as I know that there has never been any Family members who have been able to make the trip.
    Thanks for posting.
    Paul Sewart.
