MEMORIAL TO KOREA HEROES
I AM acting on behalf of the authorities at the United Nations Memorial Cemetery Busan South Korea, where more than 800 British servicemen are buried.
The authorities there wish to obtain photographs of those servicemen interred there, and, also of those who gave their lives but have no known grave.
The photographs will be attached to their records, and will also be displayed on the walls of the Cemetery Hall of Remembrance, for all time.
The following names are just some of the young men from the Greater Manchester area who gave their lives in Korea. L/Cpl Clifford Broughton; Pte Ronald Sharman; Pte John H Eadsforth; Sgt Herbert Clarke; Mne Gerard Ahern (RM); L/Cpl Keith S Ogborn; L/Cpl Edward Hannen; Fus Ronald J Eardley; Mne John L Graham (RM); Spr Arnold Ashcroft; L/Cpl James Smith; Cpl Ronald Southworth; Lt Victor A Dunlop; Pte Joseph Dye; S/ Lt Richard D Bradley (RN).
Any family who lost a loved one in the Korean War, from 1950-53, and wish to take part, can send the photograph to me at: Brian Hough 116 Fields Farm Road, Hyde. SK14 3NP. Or for further details phone 0161 368 5622 or 07467 037742. You can also email: bhough116@gmail.com. Brian Hough Hyde
