Ben Soppit who recently visited the Basra Memorial in southern Iraq, took photographs of the 69 panels commemorating the 40,633 Commonwealth servicemen who gave their lives in Mesopotamia during WW1 and were buried with no known grave, has kindly given me permission to reproduce these photos on my website - click on the link below for a complete set of 69 enhanced images on my website, including a search facility to see which regiments are on which panel or panels
I have copied below images of the first four panels to give you an example of what they look like.
Details of the fallen can also be found by clicking on the Commonwealth War Graves website. Ben has formed a Facebook Group, 'Commonwealth War Graves and Memorials in Iraq' which I recommend you visit.
