Frank,  I do not know the precise circumstances of your death, but, as a former soldier myself, doing my National Service in the Suez Canal Zone and Aqaba in 1950-51 with the 1st Battalion of the Royal Lincolns, while sad to read of your sacrifice, I feel honoured to be able to salute you as the brave soldier you undoubtedly were.    I trust that the Guard of Honour at your graveside fired the traditional salute to a fallen comrade. I can but quote the memorial hymn again, “All you had hoped for, all you had you gave to save mankind – yourself you scorned to save.”  In addition to your memorial in the Cemetery, you are also remembered every year at the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance, when the parade is at the attention while the Queen’s Colour and the National Standard are dipped in salute as the Last Post is sounded. I offer my sympathy to your relatives and friends who mourned your sacrifice. Rest in Peace. Harry.

Henry Harrison
