Dvr. Douglas Haig Rippin
British Army Royal Army Service Corps
from:29 Adelaide Buildings, Poplar, London
Douglas Rippin was my Grandfather, I was only six when he died
and unfortunately he only spoke about the war to his father. The only
information I know is his regiment and that he was a driver, driving supplies
and passengers. I've been told he drove for Monty Vera Lynn and David Niven. Apparently he ended up in Brest and he was at Normandy.
Any help in finding out more would be welcomed.
