Sue Light Posted 21 June , 2005 Share Posted 21 June , 2005 While I was in London yesterday, I passed the ICC memorial in Victoria Embankment gardens. I've attached a photo, with apologies for the 'people' [nothing to do with me!] but it was so busy and difficult to snap anything that didn't include an ice-cream. I did take photos of the names on the panels - they're very small, but most are visible, and include Australians and New Zealanders. If anyone would like an image of the plaques, drop me an email and I'll send them. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staffsyeoman Posted 22 June , 2005 Share Posted 22 June , 2005 Sue, I pass this every day - superb pics! My heartfelt request would be for the panel with the Machine Gun Companies' names on, if you would be so kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I'll post the photo here, although having reduced it, the names will not be very clear. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenbecker Posted 25 June , 2005 Share Posted 25 June , 2005 Sue, As I am writting the history of the Camel Corps I also would like a close view of all the names on the monument. I have photos from mates but none with a close look at all names. I then can check them against the names given to me by the CWGC.

Andrew Hesketh Posted 4 July , 2005 Share Posted 4 July , 2005 Sue, Any chance of the panel with 2. Lt. Thomas Rowland Smith on it? Could he be on the one above - it looks like C.R Smith but I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
