There are now more than 1700 servicemen and women commemorated on the Death and Service website.

Seventeen hundred graves from eighteen counties and over 140 regiments. These are men and women from across Great Britain, the Empire and beyond, who gave their lives for their King and their Country.

Lives cut short by illnesses, injuries, drownings, suicides, car, motorbike and aircraft accidents. The oldest was 68, the youngest just 15 years old.
