That's a good point, Ady; I was looking at the grave picture earlier and trying to make out the names.  I'll see if I can make the names a bit clearer.

They look as if they  have been taken by an official photographer don't they - taken with quite a sophisticated camera you would think.

I suppose it would be able to find out who the war photographers were in Mesopotamia at the time?
Gaunt, Ransom, McNally, Stanfield, Kimberley. (Tasmania)
Brown, Johnstone, Eskdale, Brand  (Dumfriesshire,  Scotland)
Booth, Bruerton, Deakin, Wilkes, Kimberley
(Warwicks, Staffords)
Gaunt (Yorks)
Percy, Dunning, Hyne, Grigg, Farley (Devon, UK)
Duncan (Fife, Devon), Hugh, Blee (Cornwall)
Green, Mansfield, (Herts)
Cavenaugh, Ransom (Middlesex)

I don't think it is, although I can't make it out with a jewellers loupe on the original photo.
