Born Sept. 1915
H.Q. Section
Artisan Works 652 Coy
Royal Engineers
B.E.F.
Addresses during WW2:
Loudoun Square, Cardiff.
Dogfield St, Cardiff.
St. Fagans Rd, Cardiff.
The attached image is of, now Sergeant Cyril teaching his young men to 'paint'.
Wouldn't it be fantastic if someone could recognise one or two of these young men.
Is it possible please to find any documents and details relating to my relation, including of his unit and job.
My mother told me that Cyril was at one stage, right hand man to General Montgomery during the war.
I look forward to learning more.
Many thanks.
