I know there are lots of threads on here with regard to photographs of the various panels on the Malta War Memorial ,too many to reply to individually and some requests will now be complete even if it appears the `wants` are still outstanding? I have been given the photographs below and please use them as you see fit .They will hopefully fulfill peoples requests and any new comer with similar requests can find the panels here? (If I have missed an obviously better place please feel free to move them?) Kyle (Photographs via Mr William Blackett although he does not require any future use of them to be photo credited)
I was thinking just yesterday that I wish someone would take photos of all the panels . Thanks for posting them. It's 20 years next month since I was there & took a photo of one of panel 8 with a cousin's name on it.
Well done Kyle and Mr Blackett. I have all of them however they are parts of panels. This will make things a lot easier. Cheers Geoff
Well done! I will visit Malta this summer and the Malta Memorial is No.1 on my list of 'things to see and do'. I was planning to ask the members of the forum for any photo requests, but this will do!
Big Thanks for those, now I can tell Mrs ABE we don't have to go to Malta! Another few off me list so thanks to all Regards Andy
Spidge pointed out that I had posted two images of Pnl 8 and no pnl 7 :ewink: Sorry mistake now rectified and Pnl 7 added. Kyle

The area is beautiful however surrounds (when I was there in 2017) were seeing quite a lot of high rise construction.
Thank you for posting pictures of this memorial. I will print them and show my Dad who is in long term care now. Panel 10 has his cousin's name John Newton Miller who my dad looked up to. John and his brother were killed in the war but seeing this memorial will be very special for him. I am new to the forum and look forward to researching more info about his brother who died when the Wellington bomber he was in did not return.
