    Hi
    If you visit any grave yards and find any New Zealanders (RNZAF or RAF) could you please contact Glen@75SQN on here or let me know and I will email him to see whether he has a copy of that pic.
    I have a list of Australians in various parts of the UK that I am trying to catch up with for Spidge on here so please ask me about various parts of England, Wales and Scotland that I havent yet managed to cover for him.
    In addition I am also trying to do as many Czechs and Caribbeans as I can for contacts elsewhere so please let me know about those.
    If you can take a pic of the grave and its environment I would be really grateful.
    Dee :)

    Hi Oggie, here are a few that I still have on file that I took for WGPP. Forbes is in Leuchars cemetery Fife. The Czech is in Ashford Byford Cemetery Kent, the others in Hawkinge. I have a Lewis but he is Canadian, i,ll keep my eyes open for anymore. Is it both wars? Derek

    Just chatted with Spidge and said I would get anyone outside of UK to contact him direct while I co-ord the UK ones for him so I dont duplicate effort.
    Many thanks to Dovermarine for adding to my NZ & Czech ones.
