I'm sure there is, and the CWGC is involved so there is probably something on there about it?

I think it's brilliant that these men, Australian and British soldiers, have been found and can now hopefully be identified and given a proper burial.

The land has been purchased by the CWGC and once the mass grave is cleared, they will be buried, no doubt with full military honours and their descendents present, in a properly designated war grave on the site.

I see nothing wrong in giving these brave men the resting place they deserve. God bless them all.

There is the CWGC site that has information including the names of the Australian and British soldiers who may be buried there. Very sad.
