The Work of the Ministry of Defence’s War Detectives

Nicola visited us in May, 2019 and told us about the work of the Joint Casualty and Compassionate Centre (JCCC). Nicola is a member of the Commemorations Team, otherwise known as the ‘MoD War Detectives’, which is responsible for undertaking work to identify and bury the remains of recently discovered British service personnel killed in historic campaigns, from WW1 onwards.  This updated presentation once again explains the ongoing work of the team, supported by recent case evidence and recovered artefacts, to highlight how sensitive, complicated and emotional the investigations can be.

Members and non-members of The Western Front Association are equally welcome.

Any new visitors are guaranteed a friendly atmosphere and a warm welcome from a group of like-minded enthusiasts.

We look forward to welcoming you to our branch meetings.
