Taken when I visited my grandfathers resting place with my wife, mother and youngest son in 2013. Located in Bayeux British War cemetery, just behind the stone seat (was a wooden one in 1994) to the left of the central memorial as you walk from the main road. Jewish service personnel had the option of having Christian listed as their religion on dog tags in case they were captured as it was well know that they personally, would receive a much harsher treatment by German captors. This led to many headstones incorrectly displaying their true faith.
