THINGS WW1 & WW2
8th
Belfast H.A.A. Regt.
aka the
twelve mile snipers
Burma
Campaign to be Remembered
“On October
3rd, 2010 at 3.30 pm, Dean Houston McKelvey will be holding a service during
which the Standard of the Belfast Branch of the Burma Star Association will
be laid up in St. Anne's Cathedral, Belfast
“We would like as many people as possible with family links to those who
served to be present in the Cathedral. Please contact us by sending an
e-mail to admin@belfastcatheral.org or a SAE and we will be in touch”.
The close links between the Cathedral and the Burma Campaign are symbolised
by the Association's Memorial in the North Aisle and the memorial of the 8th
(Belfast) Regiment of the Royal Artillery.
The address of Belfast Cathedral, is Donegall Street, Belfast BT1 2HB.
Looking
for 8th Belfast HAA men who went to Australia after the war
there are only 4 known men of the regiment still alive here in the UK
