Additional Burial Details at Ma'Asker Cemetery

Thanks to Pauline Collins (the grand-daughter of Corporal Mark Osborne of 70 Squadron who died in Iraq and was buried at the Ma'Asker Cemetery in Plot 2 Row A Grave 2) who sent me several photographs of her grandfather's burial, I have been able to add service details for three Royal Air Force men who were buried at Ma'Asker close to the grave of Corporal Osborne, simply by reading the inscription on their headstones (see attached photos). This means that 55 Squadron and 70 Squadron deaths have both increased by 1 (LAC Reginald Lloyd and Cpl Mark Osborne respectively) and the count for 'Aircraft Depot Iraq' deaths has also increased by 1 (AC1 Stanley Pain). To see all of the photos of Corporal Mark Osborne's burial, visit the OLD BURIAL PHOTOS page of this website or carry out a search on the word 'Osborne'.
