Hi Neil, Do you still need pictures from Overloon? Or any other place in the Netherlands? Would that request be an open invitation? How about UDEN WAR CEMETERY ? 001 HIPGRAVE FJ 4278227 6TH BN 01/10/1944 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY and NEDERWEERT WAR CEMETERY ? 001 BARRIE R 1816302 9TH BN 17/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 002 BRITTAIN W 14585056 9TH BN 19/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 003 CHEESE WJ 3910622 9TH BN 18/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 004 CLARKE AT 14669718 9TH BN 21/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 005 DALE F 11263654 9TH BN 04/02/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 006 HARGREAVES C 7671238 9TH BN 17/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 007 HESTER ESC 14718071 9TH BN 18/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 008 HOLDEN AAJ 6299736 9TH BN 20/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 009 HOLMES C 4462019 9TH BN 21/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 010 JOBLING L 4454330 9TH BN 18/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 011 JORDENS H 3776897 9TH BN 19/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 012 MAUNDERS JS 5185423 9TH BN 21/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 013 PATTERSON GN 14655613 9TH BN 18/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 014 SCHOFIELD FA 5115718 9TH BN 21/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY 015 WILES HG 14687297 9TH BN 18/01/1945 DURHAM LIGHT INFANTRY Jim

Welcome to the forum Avane! What a lovely gesture - I have a small number of RAAF lads to complete. My initial requirements for the Netherlands were 355 headstone photos in 100 cemeteries. I now only require the following. Five headstones in two cemeteries. If you can assist I would be most appreciative.

Hi guys, The cemeteries are far apart but I will see what I can do. Oisterwijk is no problem, it´s on my way home. Regards Astrid
Please leave a emailaddress on my public profile, with you name and the cemeteries. I don´t think I can send that many pictures on this site. Thanks

Hello Astrid, Please if the cemeteries are too far away do not make any special efforts on my behalf it was only if they were literally on your doorstep.Thanks anyway.I have noticed on your profile you have placed an information request...no one will see this unless they specifically visit your page ......best post in open forum.
