Recognition of the Sacrifice of Private George Alister Walker Ewan

Lodged by Keith Brown (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 24 supporters

The motion

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.
