If his name was Peter William Lee then his date of birth was 17 06 44. His Army number as a commissioned officer was 526045 hope this helps.

The regimental number you gave relates to him being a soldier. What was his regimental number as an officer? - he probably got an LE Commission following 22 years service. What Unit was he with?

Was he buried in Cyprus?

There are 2 areas of Cyprus that come under British jurisdiction and if his burial was in Cyprus he is most likely to be in a military cemetery in either the Eastern Sovereign base area ( probably Dhekelia ) or in the Western SBA near Limossol, Akrotiri etc.

Someone on GR was helped by a Cyprus resident re. a request to find a grave.
Maybe a request for help in Cyprus would get help?

Hi Puss,

Unfortunately, military deaths only go up to 1994 and he doesn't appear on overseas deaths.

I'm really not sure where you could look next. Sorry i couldn't help.

Hi Puss,

What sort of help do you want?

Do you have a death cert for him or is that what you're looking for?
