1,821 Allied Names From WW1

[BWEF]

Some 1,821 names have been found in a former chalk quarry at Naours in France. This was a staging area some 2 hours from Paris.

The names were written and carved by Australian, British, Canadian and American soldiers on their way to the front.

"Gusky has kept a record of the 1,821 names he has discovered at the site; among them, the AP noted, are 731 Australians, 339 British and 55 Americans. The nationalities for more than 600 of them have yet to be traced, the AP reported."

I was amazed when watching a programme about the pyramids of Giza to see that squaddies had actually got inside the pyramids a written there names.
