TOPIC:

Adrian 12345 has kindly offered to help me locate the burial sites of some of the KRRC casualties I have, so I thought I'd start up a new topic on the subject. I have tried graves-at-egg.org but without success..

Hi Adrian
Many thanks for your efforts and the photographs of my KRRC men's graves and memorials, they are a revelation. The authorities in South Africa appear to have a very comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the South African War, which I'm very pleased to be able to take advantage of.
Again, many thanks

Regards

Les.
