    With my other RAAF/RAF Australian requirements being offered by some photographic enthusiasts on this forum I am left with only one other Headstone that I require in Germany from the original 1,411.

    I have a friend who thought he had photographed all of Sage War Cemetery however this one was not in his collection.

    If anyone can assist I would be most appreciative.

    This one completed.

    With respect to these photos, I misunderstood Peter when he said he had done all of Sage. He had completed all of his requirements at Sage.

    Sorry to get your hopes up but will keep my ears open for anyone going there in the future.

    He only has one on this list which is one for Andy.

    Will do the requested photographs when visit some friends next time as the Sage War Cemetery is just 2 kilometers nearby and well known to me.
    Should be at end of April.
