Hi

As before, I would like to publicly thank Tony for all the hard work he does providing these images which we would never have a chance of seeing or
adding to our research.

Many thanks,

Graeme

 

Hello there, Am wondering if you have a photo of the grave of Sgt John Edward Page who died 20.10.1943. He was with the 9th Btn Royal Sussex and I believe he was killed at Aundh Ranges when a shell fell short during battle innoculation training. He is buried in Kirkee according to CWGC. Many thanks.

 

Ditto to Graeme's post.

 

I don't think Tony has the Kirkee War Cemetery I think this is just the old Caldecott Rd Cemetery which the CWGC are reinstating? Most buried here were commemorated on the Memorial as their graves were initially deemed unmaintainable .
