Pte. Arthur Charles Freeman

British Army 1st Btn. Black Watch

from:Liverpool

(d.22nd Nov 1944)

Arthur Arthur was my uncle and lived in Liverpool all his life. I remember the telegram coming to tell us of his death when I was 10 years old. He was a very shy young man and didn’t talk a lot, though he seems to have made some good Scottish friends in the army. He had two older brothers, one in the British Army and one in the RAF. Both of them came home from the war. Sadly, Arthur did not. I am 85 and the last living relative to remember him. He was my mother’s brother, and I lived with the family from birth, so he was very close to me as a child. I will be going to Arnhem on the 22nd November with my daughters to visit his grave. He will live on in my family.
