Doug Lewis Posted 11 April , 2004 Share Posted 11 April , 2004 Joe ODGW does not give ages or addresses,the only info that it will give you other than you already have is whether they were KIA DOW or Died (normally an accident)or whether they were attached to another Btn. For example 2lt Alfred Bradbeer was attached to 11th Btn Lanc Fus Pals on the forum might have information on individual officers you have listed.
