228552 Douglas "Jim" Hayton British Army 2nd Btn. Dragoon Guards (Queens Bays) from:Harrogate My dad Douglas Hayton was in the Queens Bays (2nd Dragoons) Tank Regiment in North Africa, Sicily and Italy, and prior to that in France as a despatch rider. He trained at Bovington before being shipped out on the six week trip to South Africa and was transported up to North Africa for the desert war. He was a tank commander and talked little about his wartime experiences. He was blown from a blazing tank and survived, but his crew did not. He had many nightmares about this after the war.
