My pilgrimage to Ypres happened to be on my birthday. Feb 1st 2019. The grave of Uncle Edward was hard to find as I focused the search on the purpose built war cemetery to the left of the main cemetery. His was right at the back of the main one. It was however a most humbling and gratifying trip from England.
