BBC Scotland's Second World War casualties database

BBC Scotland has created an online database providing information on 21,740 of the 57,000 Scots who died during World War Two. The database is located directly at http://marcellison.com/bbc/war_dead/war_dead_db - the source is the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (www.cwgc.org).
