Hi

Sunday the wife and I decided to go for a drive over to France and ended up at Ecoust St main, scene of the 59th Division stand during 21st March operation Micheal.

I am currently reseaching my Grandad of 2/6th South Staffordshires.

I have taken some photos of Grave I found just outside Ecoust St Main and was wondering if anybody has any info on the attached:-
