Kingston (May Pen / Bumper Hall) Memorial, Jamaica
TO THE MEMORY OF THESE NON-COMMISSIONED OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE JAMAICA WAR CONTINGENT WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR // A screen wall within Kingston (Up Park Camp) Cemetery which commemorates 42 servicemen who are buried in cemeteries or on private property in Jamaica, but whose graves have become impossible to maintain. Men were buried using their service numbers of the Jamaica War Contingent of the British West Indies Regiment because they died before embarking with their battalions. They would have been regarded as 'home service' without entitlement for a British War medal. Includes: Sgt. Charles Otto JWC 9365 24 August 1917 [no Jamaican death cert for this name] // complete
