The War Graves Photographic Project - The original aim of The War Graves Photographic Project was to photograph every war grave, individual memorial, Ministry of Defence grave, and family memorial of serving military personnel from WWI to the present day.  However, due to its popularity we have now extended our remit to cover all nationalities and military conflicts and make these available within a searchable database.
