6th Battalion The Bedfordshire Regiment
« on: Sunday 08 November 09 17:05 UTC (UK) »

My great uncle served with the Bedfordshire Regt and was killed at the Battle of Arras in 1917. Any ideas how I might find photographs of the 6th Battalion in WW1?

Thanks Linda. That is an amazing site. It has fully transcribed war diaries. Sadly no photos of the 6th Batt showing my great uncle though.
