    Hi,
    Wondering if anyone has general view photo(s) of Becklingen cemetery to use for someone's school project? If possible one with the name at entrance ...?

    Thanks in advance,
    D

    Hi Andy,

    Thanks there is this one,
    http://www.cwgc.org/CWGCImgs/Becklingen2006.jpg

    but wanted something pref. with Cemetery name or similar ... not for me, for someone whose relative is buried there. Don't have a headstone photo to pass on either.

    Thanks for the pointer,
    D
