SIR - In May 1953 at the Third Battle of the Hook in Korea Bradford man Cpl DF Kenehan of the 1st battalion Duke of Wellington's Regiment was killed in action and is buried in Busan Cemetery.
Do any of your readers know how to get his name added to the Bradford wall of remembrance for service personnel killed in action after 1945? I have been in contact with Bradford Council, the Royal British Legion and the Commonwealth War Graves Commission but they all say it is not in their remit and keep referring me back and forth between each organisation.
I've also been in touch with the Duke of Wellington archives department at Halifax and they have confirmed Cpl Kenehan's details. He was a pupil at St Mary's School and lived in Thornbury at the time of his death.
I'm hoping one of your readers knows how to give Cpl DF Kenehan the recognition he deserves.
