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

I decided to try to summarise how many of us are feeling with the recent BAEC changes in this open letter to Sean Doyle. If you agree with the sentiments please do retweet so we can try to push back against these changes. turningleftforless.com/an-open-letter…

A privilege to spend 36hours visiting our sites in Tanzania including the large Dar es Salaam Cemetery and our site in Morogoro which was been wonderfully maintained for the last 9yrs by husband and wife Shadrack and Lucia Mikonde. They are absolute stars. Commonwealth War Graves

A few days in Kenya visiting some of our 38 sites. Nairobi cemetery looked delightful and lush whilst Voi has a quiet dignity. Climate change will inevitably result in more being converted to dry sites like Voi. Beautiful Askari memorial in Mombasa. Watch out for lions! Commonwealth War Graves

Today’s dedication of a new CWGC memorial in Capetown to over 1700 men of the South African Labour Corps who died in WW1 but were never commemorated - until now. The graves are lost so each Iroko pillar has an individual name to enable us to remember their sacrifice. Commonwealth War Graves

A pleasure to welcome President Macron and Prime Minister Modi to our Mazargues cemetery in Marseille earlier today. The final resting place of 997 WW1 Indian soldiers and the location of a memorial to 210 men cremated nearby. Our largest site in Southern France. Commonwealth War Graves

Visiting our CWGC teams around the Marne - the site of intense fighting in 1914 and in 1918. Buzancy cemetery is home to over 300 Scots, mostly from the 15thDiv, who briefly liberated the village in July 1918. The French army erected a lovely memorial to mark their bravery.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

Visiting our Eastern Region of the UK which has numerous Naval sites: The memorial to the Patrol Service at Lowestoft and the cemetery in Shotley were boys from HMS GANGES who rest alongside WW1 casualties. Admiralty crosses mark the majority of the graves. Commonwealth War Graves

A reminder of the differing nations and religious bodies who fought in WW1. The Quakers - the FWVRC - worked in hospitals, civilian aid teams and with housing reconstruction near the front line; Ralph Brown rests in our Sangatte Cemetery near Calais. @cwgc

Taking a few days to visit our WW1 cemeteries in Northern Italy on the Asiago Plateau. In 1918, British and French troops reinforced the Italian Armies. Many casualties sustained in the battles against Austria in Jun 1918. They now rest peacefully amongst lush forests. Commonwealth War Graves

WW2 cemeteries in Northern Italy include Argenta Gap, the resting place for 2 extraordinary warriors: Major Lassen VC - a rare non Commonwealth recipient - and Corporal Hunter VC, Royal Marines. Both died during brutal fighting in the Comacchio Lagoon region early in 1945. @cwgc

When people hear the name Mary Rose they usually think of Henry VIII’s flagship. She was the first of 9 ships to bear that name - the 7th, a destroyer, was sunk in 1917 off Lerwick yet many sailors were recovered in Norway where they now rest. @cwgc The Mary Rose
