I know I have probably left it too late but I am travelling to Ypres on Friday with three friends on another war graves visit. I've tried a couple of Professor Farmer's books but have been unable to find the names of any Swansea Town players or staff killed during the First World War. I thought that if any were buried in Flanders I could include it in our itinerary and lay a wreath etc.
If anybody has any info or knowledge, I would appreciate their help.
Thanks.

Don't forget, 2pm at the stadium. An important unveiling to remember three Swans players who made the ultimate sacrifice! !
See you there! ! | | | |

Are the British war graves stone headstones these days Witneyjack ? or are there still wooden white crosses about ?
Did you visit a German Great War cemetery ?, do they still have black crosses ?, when ive seen German Great War cemeteries on the box there seemed to be a mix of black crosses for Christian Germans and headstones with the Star of David for German Jewish soldiers, is that still the case or do the German Christians now also have headstones ? | |

Kinda puts squabbling over tampons in the gents, politics and chlorinated chickens into perspective really doesn’t it? | | | |
