207838 Pte. Alfred Edward "Knocker" Peak British Army 2nd Btn. Beds and Herts Regiment from:London My dad, Alfred Peak fought for his unit as a boxer. My dad was a regular soldier who joined up in Colchester barracks. He used to tell us about his army days. I would dearly love to find out about his boxing and where he served. After the war my dad threw his medals into the river Ooze in Bedford. He met up with his brother Billy who was serving in the Royal Norfolk's on a beach when some stukas came down and shot the 1st and 2nd lines. My dad saw his brother killed and tried to bury him. He was at Monte Cassino where he got shot. He was also taken prisoner by the Italians for about 39 days. I have my dads cap badge and also my grandads who was in the Beds and Herts in WW1. If anyone has any information I would really appreciate it, sadly my dad is no longer with us so we can't ask; I would dearly love to be able to tell my grandsons about their Great Granddad as they are very interested.
