As we approach Remembrance Day, I’ve been visiting some of the 170000 graves we care for in the UK. This group is in the West Midlands: some are easy to find, some less so! The local mason also misinterpreted headstone instructions in 1944 and came up with his own design! Commonwealth War Graves

Fabulous and highly emotional morning at HellFire Pass, Thailand. Thank you to Mick Clarke for making the visit so immersive. Recognising so many of the men who died there are buried or commemorated in our Commonwealth War Graves cemeteries in Kanchanaburi & Chung Kai just a few km down the road.
