War Grave in Belgium
« on: Wednesday 23 February 05 16:11 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

I found out that one of my relatives is burried in the New Irish Farm Cemetery in Belgium. Is there anyone from Belgium here who might be able to take a photo of the stone for me? I know its probably unlikley, but you dont get if you dont ask.

Thanks

Carl.

Hi Carl
I know you could order a photo of a grave  from the Commonwealth War Graves Commission for a small charge but I don't know if they still provide this service.It might be worth contacting them to find out.
