Broomy,
Thanks for the wonderful pictures. Do you know the cause of Herbert's death?

Believe it was something he picked up in Burma----I think it may have been malaria. I'd love to know more about his service record.

You can order WW2 service records at a cost, £30.00. Instructions of how to do so can be found here.

Broomy,
I would be interested to know if malaria was the cause of death. Keep us posted.

Who was it on here that was able to tell me that James Duckworth (wall screen at Weaste) died of pneumonia?
