Good morning A

Does it give any more information, where they where etc. I've spent hours surfing the web looking for info on the ship, have some really nice photo's, but can't find anything abt what happened. I did find what someone had wrote on a forum that the St George depot ship at Salonica 7/7/18 - 1/7/19.
What is a depot ship? Would really like the service records for these boys but as of yet no replies. Fingers crossed lol. Do you know if there is a special forum on here to ask for service records?

Hello Carole,
Found that info yesterday lol, seems alot of unknown boys buried there, think because it only gives panel no ref for Hugh he is one of them. So Sad.

All the best
Washy
