Thank you both for your input . I have sent off a reminder to CWGC will update when I receive a reply. My last update was September 2021 in which they were looking at a minimum 6 months with a completion in Spring 2022 . Nothing since but hopefully I receive an update soon

Cheers

Jim

For all those interested it  appears there was an over sight in the CWGC letting me know when the stone was being put in place however the grave is now marked with a grey granite stone with DLI badge and CSM Piries details. Thank you all for your input .

Great update.
