I'm glad i've look up cemetry after all these years, relieved my uncle sgt Tot Dodds plot8.c.10. found a nice resting place. I've just visited yipes memorials and intend to now visit uncle. Its a wonderful feeling seeing how well looked after the boy's memories are looked after. I don't think Tot has had a visitor from our family and im going to put that right, at least i have a photo of him & his men on tank liberating some village over there. What a tremendous sacrifice they all made godbless them.
