Mark
Do you have his date of death / D Cert?
Update 18th May
Pte 1/1089 Alexander J Campbell has been forwarded as a case, on Mark's behalf, to CWGC / MOD as an in service death Non Comm. His details are now in the system.
If anyone has knowledge of his place of burial I would be interested in the details.
Will update when further details available. _________________ Jim
