Remembering Today Casualty Details | CWGC Serjeant DONALD SMITH 7602204, Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers who died age 23 between 25 January 1946 and 26 January 1946 Remembered with honour CELLE WAR CEMETERY Grave Reference: 3. A. 8. Location: Germany
OK then - according to the CWGC "Celle War Cemetery (Germany) was the hospital cemetery of the 64th British Military Hospital and those buried here were mainly servicemen who died of wounds sustained during the last month or so of the war. The cemetery contains 206 Commonwealth burials of the Second World War and three Polish war graves." But according to Home - Scarlet Finders 64 British General Hospital Alexandria 1/9/39 to 7/44 and then on to Quassassin; Quassassin 7/44 to 8/44 then to Andria; Andria 8/44 to 6/45 then to Genoa; Genoa 6/45 to 8/45 then to Milan; Milan 8/45 to 10/6/46 then disbanded. So I'm guessing that the CWGC description has the wrong BMH number (or were personnel who died in Milan interred in Germany?)
