I AM acting on behalf of the authorities at the United Nations Memorial Cemetery, Busan, South Korea, where over 800 British Servicemen are buried, writes Brian Hough.
The authorities there wish to obtain photographs of those servicemen interred there, and, also of those who died but have no known grave (200+).
Copies of the photographs will be placed in the men's records, and will also be displayed on the walls of the Cemetery Hall of Remembrance, for all time.
The following names are just some of the young men from the Gloucestershire and Wiltshire areas who lost their lives in the Korean War.
Pte Victor T Bowl
Pte Frederick W Bartlett
Mne Keith D Hitchman (RM)
Pte George Davies
Pte Peter D Hone
Lac Kenneth Goodfield (RAF)
Rfn Samual F Ellsmore
Lt Brian Swinbanks
A/B Ronald
A J Godsal (RN)
F/Lt John E Y King (RAF)
Maj Wilfred G Harris
Pte Brian Gallop
Any family or friend who lost a loved one in the Korean War 1950-53, and wish to take part can send the photograph to me.
