Comments: I'm looking for any information anyone may have on my great grandfather's cousin Roy England, who was a gunner in the Royal Artillery who served in WW2 and the Korean War where he would be sadly killed in action in 1951. All I know about him is that he had alopecia and was completely bald which could be an identifier if anyone might have him in their photos! He may have been in the 45th Field Regiment as he died in January. I also have his service records.
Thanks :))

Comments: Looking for any veterans or familiy members who have any information about 116 Bty, 45 Regt RA.

My late grandfather, James Milligan was a Bombadier in 116 Bty during the Korean War, and anything about him; a mention in letters, offical war records or stories from veterans would be great.

Even basic info on where the Regiment/Battery was posted and their movements during the conflict would be fantastic.
