A special event took place in May 2024, when the reburial of Private David Valentine Gemmell was held. His remains were discovered by a farmer in Cuinchy and identified by MOD War Detectives. The ceremony was attended by members of his family and the regiment to pay their respects. It was an emotional and respectful occasion, which also included the remembrance of an unknown soldier.
