Grayshotts St Joseph\'s........
.................in a quiet corner of this Catholic churchyard lies over 90 Canadian soldiers whose final resting place is so far from home.
These images were taken by C Hutchinson on a visit to Hampshire in May of 2008. I have added the information regarding each of those men.
While adding the information about each soldier I was surprised by how small these men were both in height and stature. These men are no longer just names on a headstone in a quiet churchyard but men who had families, occupations and ultimately paid the supreme sacrifice.';
