where LST_164 reports

"

...62 Chaplains were killed in action; 32 died of wounds; and 2 were "killed" out of the total. ......The 2 "killed" (apparently a separate category to Died of Wounds(Gas) and Died through enemy action at sea - both nil returns) were Rev. Donald Fraser DSO, on 2 June 1918 and Rev. Edgar Noel Moore MC attached 20th Liverpool Regt. on 5 Jany 1918. "

I thought that it was phenomal that Rev Fraser was chosen (by two different compilers?) two years running given the amount of casualties. A quick look on Geoffs' engine shows odds are 432 to 1

Rev Donald Fraser. Not Forgotten

It's not phenomenal, it's a cock up on my part.

I appear to have filed the 2010 list in the 2011 folder and have added the names thinking they were "this years" name when in fact they were listed in 2010.

Thanks for pointing this out, I will reprogramme the list when I get home from work this evening.
