Grdsmn. John Simmons Cartwright

British Army 1st Battalion Coldstream Guards

from:Birmingham

My Grandad Jack Cartwright said little about the war. He was in Sergt. H. Marshall's Squad July 1940. I know he was in Maastricht, Holland and at least one of the Bridge battles, possibly Remagen. Also, Germany I believe. He was a driver. At the end of the war he was in one of the first vehicles across a bridge and the first vehicle he met coming towards him contained his younger brother George whom he had not seen for the duration of the war.

I would be so grateful to hear from anyone who may have known him.
