You're Top Poster: #23   | Roxy says Hello! Hi there, I am currently researching my grandfather 2926293 Pte Thomas McQ Roxburgh, Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders. He was captured (I believe in Italy) and interred in Stalag VIIA at Moosburg in Germany. I am also a member of the Great War Forum and the Scottish War Memorials/War Graves Projects: I am happy to help any forum member if I possibly can. Roxy Last edited by Roxy; 22-03-2008 at 01:56 PM..

You're Top Poster: #3  | Welcome to the forum Roxy. I am sure you will enjoy it here. I too am a member of GWF & Scottish War Memorials Project. Both have been very helpful in my research and collection of RAAF grave photos and memorials.
__________________ Spidge, ------------------------------------------------------- My Avatar is the memorial to the 22 Commonwealth Coastwatchers at the Temakin Cemetery on Betio (Tarawa Atoll) who were beheaded by the Japanese on 15th October 1942. http://www.dva.gov.au/media/publicat...mem_beito.html "You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor and you will have war." (Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?

You're Top Poster: #20  | From one newbie to another - Hello Roxy. A flight instructor at that! Interesting idea to link all the members affiliations so we can call on each other for assistance. I am an inaugural member of the Great War Forum and the Canadian Expeditionary Force Study Group. I am also a volunteer photographer for the Canadian Maple Leaf Legacy Project in Ypres and I do missing cemetery photographs from Canada for the CWGC. They like my snow pictures of Canadian cemeteries! Recently, I have started working with a group of other volunteers on the "National Inventory of Canadian War Memorials" which tracks what is in churches, parks and town halls across Canada (paper and stone memorials included). Maybe the admin team can figure out a way we could have a table or database of who has access to what information? Have a great time here, I am new but finding it a great place and nice people!
