His mum and dad, Sue and Dave Webb, and his brother Luke, attended the dedication service on September 1 for 17 troops who died in 2013.
Jamie, who was from Handforth and a former pupil at Macclesfield College, was 24 when he died from wounds sustained in a Taliban attack on his patrol base in Helmand Province. The former Wilmslow High School pupil was just weeks away from returning home after his second tour of Afghanistan.
The private service was led by Bishop John Kirkham. All 17 names were read out during the service before the families were invited to lay wreaths at the base of the Armed Forces Memorial’s walls.
An engraver added Jamie’s name in May of this year.
The memorial is the UK’s tribute to the 16,000 men and women who have been killed on duty or as a result of terrorist action since 1948.
Brother Luke, 19, of Aston Way, Handforth, said: “It was very emotional for us.
“On one hand we are proud that Jamie’s name will be forever remembered on this memorial, but we miss him and it’s very sad for us to be here.”
Earlier this year the family received an Elizabeth Cross in Jamie’s honour from Prince Charles, the colonel-in-chief of the Mercian Regiment.
Luke has set up a Facebook memorial page for his brother, which has attracted more than 41,000 fans.
