And the great news is that our authorisation runs until 31 October 2026 which will (hopefully) save us having to worry about paperwork until full completion of the project! We’ll now organise our next trip asap in order to resume the search for Patrick Sarsfield. Stay tuned! 2/2

…. - That remains much older than those of the two anonymous French officers can be very well preserved (as are those of the 7-8 year-old child). So unless their graves were destroyed by the digging of later graves, we should find their remains in fairly good condition. 6/
