    3. www.awm.gov.au/collection/P04541.001/?image=1 Members of the Graves Registration Detachment, Australian section, of the Imperial War Graves unit loading bodies from a mass grave to be put in single graves. The bodies are wrapped in groundsheets with ID tags after exhumation and prior to reburial in permanent war cemeteries. Identified is 3162 Private Herbert James (Bert) Kingston (standing on the waggon). Formerly a member of the 47th Battalion, he enlisted from Bundaberg, Qld and sailed with the 8th Reinforcements.
