Site of the Month for November 2008
The 11th November 2008 marks the
90th Anniversary of the end of World War 1 - The

I have chosen the site of an organisation, which since its inception in 1917,
has constructed 2,500 war cemeteries and plots, erecting headstones over graves
and, in instances where the remains are missing, inscribing the names of the
dead on permanent memorials.
Commonwealth War Graves Commission
