   Dear Sir or Madam,

   I am a PhD research student at the University of Southampton researching the commemorative identity of the Gulf War.

   For my research profile please see

   http://www.soton.ac.uk/~history/pg/jonesrprofile.htm

   I have been attempting to locate grave or memorials to those who dies during the 1990/1 Gulf War, in order to record them, photograph them, gather any relevant documentation, (such as newspaper cutting from the time of the dedication or funeral) in order to help me with my research.

   I am contacting you to ask if there is anyone also to assist me as there is a Gulf War memory site in your area.

   I would be very appreciative if someone could be found to assist me, by photographing the site, and then sending me any relevant paperwork or images. Costs would be reimbursed.

   It is very difficult for me to travel to visit all the sites, and it would be very helpful if your society could help me.

   I look forward to hearing from you,

   Your Sincerely,

   Rachel Jones
