Hi Brian,
it's facinating. The thought that some of those unknowns may be identified after all of these years. The work that CWGC do is outstanding.
May they rest in peace.

The burials will be taking place over the next few months, the last one on the anniversary of the battle in July.

We were at the dedication ceremony on Monday in blistering sunshine. It was a very moving occasion and unlikely to be repeated in our lifetime as it's the first time a new CWGC cemetery has been built in over 50 years. Amazing that so many of these lads have been identified through DNA. May they all rest in peace.
