    You have a headstone photo of J Rowlands of 92 LAA on your website.

    I don't have a photo, but the following guy is also buried there from that regiment.

    3858979 Bombardier John Nicholson, aged 26 (Counter-Mortar Unit)
    Died October 27, 1944
    Son of John William and Eliza Nicholson; husband of Ada Nicholson, of Little Hulton, Lancashire.
    Overloon War Cemetery, Netherlands, II.E. 12

    Ramcal, I had a look at your site also and found it very interesting, I especialy like the picture of the 7th loyals in action on the opening
    page (index), looks pretty hetic! I have a few pictures of LAA units
    but none while in action, the majority of the men have bandages on
    various parts of their bodies, well looking at your picture its hardly surprising.

    When I next update my links page on my site I'll will put a link to yours and Philips if thats OK with you both?

    Cheers
    Kieron

    Hi KH

    Afraid I can't take the credit for the 92 Loyals site as it was done by a son of one of the Gunners who served on it. His details are on the site along with his Dad's photo.

    There is a new member on this site called 92Loyals and it is his uncles site and a very good one. I'm sure that he would appreciate it being given a plug.

    Regards - Robert

    Hello Philip,
    Just had a look at the new site and it's great!:D
    I don't know how you manage it but I'm glad you do! Well done!
    Just as a matter of interest, does this mean that the ABRG/ABSG is now definitely a thing of the past (pardon the pun)?
    Best regards.......

    Peter and myself are still running the ABRG,(he is working on a site about Nijmegen 1944-1945) but it is all on low profile, I keep working on new publication though, the next one will be about Bren carriers during the Battle.

    Thanks for your visit

    There was a website for the 92 Loyals LAA, but it is no longer available. I have the e-mail address of it's creator, son of one of it's Gunners.

    I will bring this post to his attention and maybe he will contact you if you are interested.

    Philip,

    A very well laid out site and must have taken a lot of your time and will continue to do so.
    A real credit to you and a good source for many to view.
