The latest satellite imagery on Google Earth clearly shows the new wall built around the western half of the Hinaidi RAF Peace Cemetery (name later changed to M'Asker Al Raschid Cemetery or more simply the Rasheed Cemetery, Baghdad. Attached are two images, the first a 3-D satellite view of the cemetery, overlaid with the official CWGC cemetery plan for the Ma'Asker RAF Cemetery and marked with the 16 graves of 6 Squadron men and the second a 2-D image of the same area, showing the great accuracy of the new wall when compared with the original cemetery wall.
