BeppoSapone Posted 30 October , 2004 Share Posted 30 October , 2004 Well, you could use the CWGC facility to check exactly who is buried in that cemetery, and was also in the Black Watch. I had a quick look and found only one, although you might find others if you have more time. The one I found was Pte J Millar of the 8th Black Watch, so one of the three men in the photo could be him? http://www.cwgc.org/cwgcinternet/casualty_...&casualty=92114 However, the soldier could have been transferred from the Black Watch to another regiment by the time he was killed? Have a look if someone mentioned Pte Millar in the visitors book fairly recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
