Lieutenant George Tinsley
This document was sent by Capt. Aitken to the RHLI HQ in England at 0245 am on the 20th of Aug 42. It states that Lt. Tinsley has arrived in the UK wounded. A cable (#1828) was sent on that information to his Next-of-Kin his mother. This shows some of the confusion that existed as the troops returned to the UK. We know that George died on the boat returning to the UK. Obviously there were so many wounded that this officer was not notified that George had died. He simply sent his list to the Unit as soon as he landed and didn't check to see that they were all still alive.
Mrs. Tinsley received another telegram on the 24th.<P>

This Postings and Casualties card taken from George Tinsley's pers file in Ottawa answers the question on where he died and of what. There seems to be some confusion as to the time of his death. Did he die in the boat returning or after his return? The scratched out information matches a message to the unit stating that he was wounded but alive on landing.
This only changes the date, not the result.<P>

CIMETIÈRE MILITAIRE DE BROOKWOOD Surrey, Royaume-Uni
Brookwood est environ 30 miles de Londres (suivre le M3 à Bagshot et puis le A322). Le cimetière militaire de Brookwood se trouve sur le A324 près du village de Pirbright. Le cimetière militaire de Brookwood appartient à la Commonwealth War Grave Commission et est le plus grand cimetière militaire du Commonwealth au Royaume-Uni, couvrant environ 37 acres.
En 1917, une partie du cimetère de Brookwood (la nécropole de Londres) a été réservée à l'inhumation d'hommes et de femmes des forces du Commonwealth et d'Américains qui étaient morts dans la région de Londres, nombre d'entre eux à la suite de blessures de guerre. Ce site a été agrandi par la suite pour accueillir les victimes de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Les tombes des victimes alliées se trouvent dans les sections américaine, belge, tchèque, hollandaise, française et polonaise. Il y a aussi une section allemande et une section italienne où les prisonniers de guerre sont enterrés.
Pour plus d’informations, visitez la Commission des sépultures de guerre du Commonwealth (site disponible en anglais seulement).
