How can I find the location of a friend's brother who is buried at Normandy Beach?
If the person you are looking for was part of the British and Commonwealth (e.g. Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc) forces then The Commonwealth War Graves Commission are excellent at pointing people to the right cemetery. Obviously some of the fallen were buried without being identified, by the Commission in in charge of the records and keeps the cemeteries in fine order.

Who were the youngest british solders to die in ww1?
There is a grave in Essex Farm (British) Cemetery near Boesinghe, Belgium in the northern part of the Ypres Salient with the name John Strudwick who was killed in 1915 or 1916 at the age of 15. That cemetery also happens to be the location in which Canadian medical officer John McCrae wrote the famous poem, In Flanders Fields in 1915. It was not terribly uncommon for boys to lie about their age in order to enlist in the British army (or navy) in WWI. There are many other examples of 15- and 16-year olds listed in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission records of war dead.
