					<description><![CDATA[How many Commonwealth graves are there and how many ANZAC dead are buried there?

As I explained in my post in an earlier article this week about 1500 1st AIF died from the Desert Mounted Corps but many others are likely to be buried their too.

I read a letter in a newspaper recently that over 100,000 allied Muslim soldiers also died in WW1. They mostly served on the western front but some were in the Dardanelles campaign.

They were from the British Indian Army (now India, Pakistan and Bangladesh) and French colonial divisions and regiments from what is now 10 or so countries in North and West Africa. 

I assume the British Indian Army had tens of thousands of Hindi soldiers too.]]></description>
