Rorkes Drift V.C.

I reckon i've got grave photos of about 80% of WW2 casualties and about 25% of the WW1 ones that are on the CWGC database for that cemetery.

Also got a fair few photos of graves with inscriptions to the memory of WW1 & WW2 casualties that are buried/commemorated elsewhere as well as 2 men that rode in the 'Charge of the Light Brigade'.

Let me have his details and i will have a look. If i've not already got photos for your man, i will pop down in the next week or so and get them for you.

Cheers

Scott

Is this your man?

If it is then i will probably still have the higher res (2-3Mb each photo) versions on a memory card somewhere.

If you want copies of these, then PM your e-mail address, and i will send them onto you.
