How many of you were there in total and was it just John on the veteran front?

There was just four of us: John on the veteran front(!), John Mogie whose uncle was killed at the Sangro, and Clive Harris whose uncle was killed at Salerno.

Here's the boys on the Snakeshead Ridge at Cassino, standing amonst the remains of sangars held by John Dray's battalion in March-April 1944.

Left to Right: Clive Harris, John Mogie and John Dray.

Nice photos, but pity you didn't post them in an area about Normandy, rather than one connected with Italy.

Baldblutch · 29-06-2004, 01:13 PM

oops! Sorry! Will try to start a new topic with them <_<
