My great uncle died in 1951 from pulmonary TB which he got after spending over 10 hours in the water after his ship was torpedoed. His death cert states his death was directly linked to his war service but as he did not die within the cut off date of 31.12.1947, he lies in an unmarked grave.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
