Sgt. Horace Alfred Thomas "Sonny" Rickwood

British Army Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers

My dad, Horace Rickwood died not long after he left the army and when I was a few months old so I know very little about him. However, I have a large album of photographs, and it would be wonderful if I could find any more about him - maybe from a veteran or a member of their family. What I do know from the photographs is that he was in the REME and photographs show that he was involved with the Daimler Armoured Car Trials and Churchill Bridgelayer Trials.

The notes written on the back of the photos are as follows..

  • Murree & Murree Cafe
  • Kashmir
  • Daimler Armoured Car Trials
  • Churchill Bridgelayers Trials
  • The Jantar Mantar Indian Observatory, N Delhi
  • The Mall, Murree
  • Chaklaka
  • Pershawar Road
  • Tret
  • Edwardes Road Rawal Pindi
  • Sadar Bazar Pindi
  • Lower Topa Murree
  • Kashmir
  • Pershawar Road, Pindi. Mem. Gdns.
  • Valley Mrray Hills
  • Sherman ARV
  • Chaklala 1946
  • Kashmir Point Reservoir
If my photos and information are of interest please do let me know.
