206298 Pte. George Caleb Hodgson British Army Royal Army Service Corps from:109 Scotland Road, Carlisle (d.2nd Jun 1941) I have been told that my brother George Hodgson was mortally wounded, died in the cellar of a 'safe' house on 2 June 1941 somewhere in Crete. He was allegedly buried in the garden of this house by the Alexander family (who were Naturalised Americans) at that time and not in the war so the German Occupying Forces could not enter the house. This account of his death conflicts with a claim by a soldier that my brother died, along with three others called Dunn (No 178452), McCurrach and Shiner (196240), having been bombed. It was suggested that the bodies were 'dug out' but no one has categorically confirmed that my brother was one of the dead. I have a letter from another source in which the writer tells me that the soldier who died in the cellar bore the identification tags with the name George Hodgson. There is no other George Hodgson buried in Suda Bay British Military Cemetery and the story is that my brother's remains were re-interred there after the war. If anyone has any information about this, I would be eternally grateful.
