trenchtrotter Posted 30 September , 2011 Share Posted 30 September , 2011 Boisanger is in the Ovillers Military cemetery if memory serves me right? An often neglected memorial! Best wishes for the ceremony, they deserve to be remembered. TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
