    Clive - I know these are posted every day, but it is very much appreciated. It really puts things in perspective. I've had a few bad days at work, but at least I can gain comfort from the fact that nobody is trying to kill me. My "problems" are minor by comparison. Good to be reminded of that.

    Hi My Grandfather was killed on the same day, and is buried a couple of graves along from Cpl Jeeves.
    I'm trying to trace my Grandfathers last steps, I know he was in Rheine on 03/04/1945 and was killed the following day on route to cross the Dortmund Ems Canal, I would love to know more as I'm due to visit Holland next year, and would like to include this in my trip.
    Any information very greatly received
