WAR GRAVES (152 SQUADRON)

Hi to all, I don’t want this post to sound morbid. I’m trying to collect photo’s and information of War Graves from 152 sqn Pilots & Groundcrews between 1939-2004, I do have a lot of information from 1939- 1945 but no photo’s. I’m hoping to collect enough information to put on my site, so any help would be very welcome. I do apologise to anyone who thinks this is bad taste, I think its a way to remember those who served with 152 Squadron.

Cheers

Rob…..

Rob, why don’t you post a list of the cemeteries and the counties they are in on this thread, followed by the overseas ones by country then location within. Perhaps if people can see where the cemeteries are they may realise that they actually live quite close to some of them?

I’ve had a look at your list and I’m afraid I’m not near any of them. Good luck with this worthwhile project though. Geoffs idea about contacting local press to request help is a great one too.

Hi Thanks for that, I’m sorry I pushed the wrong link 😮 , I’m trying to do too many things at once, :rolleyes: no rest for the wicked as they say. :diablo:

Cheers

It’s not morbid Rob, I did the same thing for many of the casualties of 131 (County of Kent) squadron. You could write to the local paper/s in the areas where the graves are, asking if anyone could take some photos for you. It worked for me quite often.

There is a page (http://www.152hyderabad.co.uk/html/roll_of_honour__1939-1945.html) on Rob’s 152 Squadron webside with the graves & their locations listed, so please have a look & see if any are near you.
