Veteran's Headstones Part Deux
by bootlegga on Fri Aug 18, 2006 10:43 am
As promised, more headstones from the cemetary near my office.
Here are a couple of the 'traditional' Commonwealth Veteran's headstones you might find in a military cemetary in Europe/Asia.
Based on the 'C.E.F.' label, my guess is he fought in WW1.
My guess is Corporal Dalley fought in WW2, but I may be wrong...
This one is interesting as he fought for the French with the Zouave Regiment, which originally were raised from colonials from Africa.
There are a couple more interesting ones I found, but I haven't had time to edit them down to a size that will fit on here. Maybe I'll upload them tonight/tomorrow...
Lest we forget!

Very nice boot. Thanks for the pics!! The CEF one is almost definetly WWI, especially if it gives a regimental number instead of a name. Can' see it well enough to make it all out.
Thanks again!
IF YOU DONT STAND BEHIND OUR TROOPS,
PLEASE, FEEL FREE TO STAND IN FRONT OF THEM
