** Missing Soldiers of Fromelles:Launch of a new website to ensure the sacrifice of missing soldiers at ‘Pheasant Wood’ are not forgotten and to help community members research this important topic.
Bureaucratic red tape continues to impede the excavation of the bodies of WWI diggers buried at Pheasant Wood and fearing the integrity of the pits will be compromised archaeologically, the Fromelles Discusson Group requests the Commonwealth War Graves Commission act more decisively in this matter and avoid further procrastination. Every effort should be made to recover the 170 Australian 5th Division and 300 British 61st Division soldiers believed to be buried at the site to ensure their sacrifice is properly recognized and to allow for the timely re-interment of their remains. www.FromellesDiscussionGroup.com
