Spr. Robert Millar
British Army Royal Engineers
from:Bowhill, Cardenden, Fife, Scotland
My great-uncle Bob Millar served as a Sapper during WWI. He was born in Newbattle Edinburgh on 7th Aug 1886 and died on the 27th Jan 1975 in Bowhill, Fife. He never married and had no offspring. I have his war medals. I knew him very well but he never talked about being in the war. His brothers were also Sappers but as they had children and many descendants they will be remembered. He was very tall at least 6'4" so how he tunnelled under enemy lines to plant bombs is astounding. He worked as a miner all his life. I only have a couple of photos of him sadly and none in uniform. But I do have his medals which are in a shadow box along with my dad's WWII medals.
