Darren Evans Posted 29 November , 2012 Share Posted 29 November , 2012 All, A quick update for you. I am currently processing and analyzing around 140+ photographs. Once i have labelled, i will get round to answering your queries as best i can. Don't despair if you cant see what you need, another trip can be organised in the near future for any in depth information. Will get round to you all shortly. It will be impossible to put all on here, so i will add a few, and any private requests can be made where i will send you what you want.

keithmroberts Posted 29 November , 2012 Share Posted 29 November , 2012 Darren That is brilliant, but please edit your post to remove your email address. members can contact you by personal message, which will avoid putting the address in public view. In the meantime I will insert a space or two to confuse scanning software. Keith Roberts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithmroberts Posted 30 November , 2012 Share Posted 30 November , 2012 Darren has just pointed out an interesting feature. He was good enough to send me a photo showing my man, who according to the CWGC was on panel 50, but below his Indian unit the 92nd Punjabis, the 93rd Burma Infantry, and some of the 114th Mahrattas is a separate panel section with no regimental header listing many men of the Black Watch who should be on either panel 25 or 63. So it seems to me that when the monument was moved to its present location, many panels were probably just put together like a jigsaw without the pictures, - that is, if it fits, put it there.
