Today, Wednesday 3rd July 2024, members of the Ancre Somme Association Charity were honoured to attend the rededication service for Private Price in the CWGC Chester Farm Cemetery in Belgium.

George enlisted with the Monmouthshire Regiment on the 1st May 1916 and was later transferred to the South Wales Borderers. George was killed on the 2nd of October, 1917.

At the time he was killed, George Price was buried in a field grave. However, by the time he was recovered in the autumn of 1920 and moved to Chester Farm - anything recording his name had been lost and he was buried as an unknown soldier of the 5th Bn South Wales Borderers.

Research has now revealed the final resting place of George Montague Price, and today, his name was restored to him.

Today's service was conducted by Reverend Richard Mutter CF Chaplain to 1st Battalion The Royal Welsh.

Attendees included Colonel Nicholas Lock, late of The Royal Welsh, Steve Brown MBE, The Joint Casualty & Compassionate Centre, the British Embassy and the CWGC.

The Last Post was played by Sergeant Andrew Jones, Regimental Band, 3rd Battalion The Royal Welsh.
