Hi, just stumbled on this site while browsing , and so glad i did as it brings back many memories of my days with the 12 field regt. I was a Gnr on Johnnie Gormals gun in the 43 bty. I joined the Regt in England shortly before the D day invasion and remained with them until the war ended. My memory is getting a bit sketchy at times as i am 94 yrs of age, however i manage.
Thank you so much, dear Sir Russel A. Kaye, of the 12th Field Regiment for contacting us. We have been searching for years now to find any surviving members for the regiment. Grateful to be in touch!
