I AM acting on behalf of the authorities at the United Nations Memorial Cemetery Busan South Korea, where over 800 British Servicemen are buried.
The authorities there wish to obtain photographs of those servicemen who are buried there, and, also of those who died but have no known grave (200+) copies of the photographs will be placed in the man’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 south west area who gave their lives in Korea. Pte Joseph J Oates, Pte William H Thomas, Capt Alfred V Jenkins, Cpl Cyril W F Bearne, Pte Martin Hogan, Sgt Albert F Baggott, Spr Arthur C Hurst, Pte Reginald Vosper, Cpl Royston M Tucker, Pte Raymond E Crews, Cpl Thomas R Hamill and Tpr Alec G Willmott.
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.
If more details are required you call me on 0161 368 5622, or 07467037742.
