Sgt. Lambert

British Army Reconnaissance Corps

Sometime during ww2 a unit of the reconnaissance corps was stationed in Windermere, I don't remember how long they stayed, they were billeted in the local drill hall and their Bren Gun Carriers were parked in the back lane next to our house. The troops were welcomed by the locals and we had 3 NCOs and 5 men who came to our house for a bath. Two of the NCOs were Sgt Lambert and Sgt Johnson, I was only 8 or 9 at the time and my memory is failing but I remember they were a great bunch of lads. My mother died while they were there and the whole unit attended her funeral.
