Exhumation & reburial of Charlie Baker and his mates.


Above: I have no photograph of Charlie Baker, but this is his mate, Horace Carroll, who was shot and killed in the trench alongside Charlie and two other Australian soldiers. As can be seen from the documentation below, the bodies of Charlie, Horace and the other two men were exhumed in 1927, and buried together in an official war cemetery in France.
