Well done, a well laid out site.
I particularly like the brackets explaining terms and abbreviations after they occur, I've not come across this before.
A good idea.

Excellent website.
I have taken Pte Harry Major, [Killed in Action on the 16th July 1917], under my wing for the past 15 years.
I found a rotting wooden Celtic Cross to him in a Darlington cemetery.
I got permission to remove it, cleaned it up and gave it to the Green Howards Museum.
I believe that it is his original grave marker, he is buried at Heninel.
I will advertise your website to the Cleveland Branch of the WFA at the next meeting, others may have information.
I have a feeling your website will get a little bigger.
Sean. Darlington.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Excellent website.
Here are most of the 17 men you have not been able to trace.
Andy. Location not known.
Andy sent a message via the Great War Forum clearing up all the missing burial sites etc that I had spent ages trying to find.
Many thanks.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grand website. Great labor of love - and tons of time I know.
The images used are great. They are a story in themselves.
