Recognition of the Sacrifice of Private George Alister Walker Ewan

  • Submitted by: Keith Brown, Clackmannanshire and Dunblane, Scottish National Party.
  • Date lodged: Monday, 04 November 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-15183

That the Parliament honours the memory of Private George Alister Walker Ewan from Dollar; understands that he served in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, dying in battle, in Italy, in June 1944; welcomes the news that, previously buried in a grave marked as an unknown soldier, his grave has now been rededicated with military honours; appreciates the role of researchers in identifying Private Ewan, and is grateful that he may now be honoured for his sacrifice.
