Sgt. Charles Sherrington "Sherry" Dobbing

British Army 7th Btn. Seaforth Highlanders

from:Northumberland

(d.15th Feb 1945)

Sherry Dobbing was the father and grandfather we never knew

I never knew my dad as I was born just over a month after he was killed in action, on the 15th of Feburary 1945 in the area around Moyland Wood near Clev I was told he led his platoon which was caught in a crossfire. At this time the fighting was very bad. He is buried in Reichwald War Cemetery. He joined up about 1933 at Edinbrough Castle, Scotland with his best friend, Tommy Atinson, his servce no was next no to my dad's 2819261. He was killed about 1944 at Eindhoven. My daughter is going to get my dad's service records from the War Office, as soon as she can. Malcolm.
