Default People in service of their country

Hi Rick

Thanks for sharing these photos, good to see them preserved and shared. All to often photos like these are being lost, as the people who knew these men when they served their country and cherished the photos pass away.

Cheers Phil

14th Field Reg. page 10 of War Diary. Of interest WD 08 reports of a Ram tank on strength, and WD10 a little glimpse of the preparations for D-Day.

14th Field Reg. page 11 of War Diary. Hanno you will see a little comment on 105's, disappointingly all of the typing from August 1944 is very hard to read. If you pm your email I'll send Aug to you and you can try and discern what has been typed.

14th Field Reg. page 12 of photos. The photos seem to jump back and forth from Canada to overseas a little. P54 looks to be a firefly.
