    Frenchie, I worked that area during that time (Sept'75-Mar'76). I was in and out of Ebrington most weeks but I have memory failure about this lad. Any details or is it too painful.

      Jock,
      It's a bit raw, I was in the same block and assisted.
      In respect to Pete's family I will have to leave it there.
      I spoke to Pete's sister on IKRA's site not long ago on line because she was looking for information. It was a terrible and tragic time.

                    For some reason it keeps going into my out box then disappearing.

                    Message reads

                    Sorry mate...should have known better than to ask. Memory back on line.

                      Could someone please tell me where Peter is buried or his ashes scattered.I was in juniors with Pete at Fullwood barracks. We got on great and became good muckers. I say a few words to Pete every time i visit the Wall.

                          Cheers mate,
                          I've been to this Cemetery many times looking for Kav,most recently after this years Ride to the Wall. I have traipsed up and down row 23 but cannot find where he is buried. Allerton Cemetery records are as much use as rocking horse poo! I'll keep trying though.
                          Stag on,
