He is not missing; he is here'.

Field Marshal Lord Plumer.

Sunday 24th July, 1927

Subject: Ghost soldiers of the British Expeditionary Force muster at the Menin Gate, and realise that they are 'Not Forgotten', the Menin Gate has recorded on it the names of 55,000 British and empire servicemen that have no known grave, including My own Gt Uncle 

Note how the soldiers morph into the walls, here I have depicted a Sikh Cavalryman, A Bagpiper, an Artilleryman and RFC pilot
