Recent Visits

May and June 2013 will see visits to most of the remaining cemeteries and memorials in France & Belgium with Channel Islands connections.

Five Group members visited important sites and cemeteries in Belgium and France in October 2011. One result is that many more web pages and photographs have been added to the Jersey & Guernsey Rolls of Honour.

An additional trip in April 2012 to Flanders has resulted in most headstones in Belgium now being visited. A visit to the Meuse region, in October 2012, has added photographs for many Frenchmen with Channel Island connections.

Non working CWGC links

On 31st January 2012 the Commonwealth War Graves Commission made major changes to their web site. This has resulted in some of the links to casualty certificates, from this site, being rendered inoperative.

Hopefully, these problems have now been rectified but please contact us if you come across a non-working link.

 

Site videos

Most videos on this site have now been converted to use "YouTube". This should make them easier to view in all web browsers.
