Spr Edward Percy Arnold
British Army Royal Engineers
from:Doncaster
This story was told by my grandfather Percy Arnold to one of his grandsons who has retold it.
Grandad Percy was a Sapper in the Royal Engineers this would have been an appropriate role for Grandad Percy as in civilian life he was a employed in heavy manual work. Like many of his generation he didn't talk much of his time in the war but as he was laid up poorly one time his daughter asked her son to talk to Grandad and this is one story he told.
