Remembered Today:

Loos - KOYLI unidentified dead

Hello Everyone

I am visiting the Loos battlefield in May to have a mooch around and visit, if possible, the Hohenzollern Redoubt and the memorial to the missing.

My GGrandfather Sam (see footer) was KiA in front of the Redoubt on 1/10/1915 and he is remembered on the Loos Memorial. I thought it would be nice to locate a grave of of an unidentified soldier of the KOYLI and lay some flowers.

However, I am having some difficulty in locating said grave and was hoping that a Pal could give me a pointer. Also, does anyone know if there is legitimate access to the Hohenzollern Redoubt?

As far as the grave goes www.cwgc.org will tell you which cemetery it is in and how to get there. As far as access to the Hohenzollern Redoubt I am afraid I could not say. My G-g-Uncle is also on the Dud Corner Memorial, when you go in there spare a thought for Tom Wilson.

All the best,

Tim
