The following post was made by Forum Member Glenn2214
"Thanks to you, I have been able to visit the grave of Stephen Stewart who died on the 8th of december 1998 in Mrkonjic Grad,Bosnia Herzegovina. He is buried in Shanwell cemetry,Carnoustie..Stephen died as the tragic result of a runaway 432 armoured fighting vehicle crushing him against another. I was the medic on duty at the time of his death..his death affected us all greatly and the one overwhelming memory i have is of holding his hand after we had stopped the resuscitation attempt. The feeling of sending someone's son home in a bodybag close to christmas will continue to haunt me..but at least i got to say goodbye..thanks to you.. "
