WW2 - 52nd Lowland Division
« on: Monday 07 August 06 09:50 BST (UK) »
My grandfather, Albert Edward Speller, was in the 52nd Lowland Division during WW2.
I am looking for anyone who may have photo's (group photo's or other) of this division, or any type of information on this division.
I have a few photo's (one group photo), and scans of his medals.

Thank you.
