Description:

Comes with a telegram to his family notifying them that Private Agnew's remains have been reburied in the Bomana War Cemetery : Part 1 List (Abb-Guy) published in 1960 of War Casualties buried in the Bomana War Cemetery, Port Moresby ; a loose leaf Map detailing the Tarakan & Balikpapan Campaigns ; a private photograph of Bomana War Cemetery ; condolence cards from family & comrades ; 20 touchings letters sent home by Clyde Agnew from the Front and two sent to him & an 'In Memoriam' dated Thursday June 12 1952. Tellingly the letter to him from his mother and dated 14/6/45 the day of his death is torn in half and was probably returned undelivered. Nothing better captures the true anguish of a mother having lost a son.
