Please restore Jimmy - Gordon Highlanders WW2

[Darwin]

I'd be very grateful for a restoration on this photo of my Dad's brother Jimmy (who I sadly never met). He was in the Gordon Highlanders and this photo was probably taken in North Africa c1940.

He was fatally wounded on Sword Beach, Normandy on D-Day & died four days later aged 26. Jimmy is on the left of the photo.

I've tried to restore another copy but not managed it so would really appreciate the skills of the experts here! Many thanks.

Hello Darwin,
Could I ask which Battalion of the Gordons your uncle was in? My late father was also in the Gordons and was wounded just after D-Day while advancing through a cornfield. Most of his comrades were killed. He never went to church again after that.

Regards

AJ

His grave at Hermanville records it as 5/7th Battalion. That's all I know I'm afraid.
