"The Civil War Sikh that stumps us".

Followers of #themonumentalproject will know we love sharing our research discoveries. Not for us to hoard what we know and limit it to just a 'select' few. If we don't share what we learn, then its dies with us. Selfishly storing away knowledge in that instance has zero value.

Therefore we are thrilled to shine more light on a mystery picture often discussed online featuring the London Branch of American Civil War veterans.

In August 1917 the men made their way to The Green Park, , near Buckingham Palace, London, England to greet Doughboys of Pershing's AEF. At least two photographs exist. One includes them with a veteran, possibly a Sikh seated among them. To date nobody know who he is. However, what we have determined that he is definitely wearing a medal ribbon of the type worn by Civil War veterans.

Adding more information to the knowledge pool, yesterday we discovered ANOTHER photograph of this mystery veteran. This time sat laughing and chatting with young Doughboys.

If there are two photographs of him, maybe we'll discover a third? And maybe, just maybe, one will say who he was, and he'll no longer unidentified, nor lost to history like mist in the morning sun.

We're no closer to knowing who he is, but we wont give up the quest!! Nor will we ever stop sharing our discoveries with you as we raise awareness, and monuments too.
