Sgt. Joseph John Anthony

British Army 3rd Btn. South Wales Borderers

from:Yestradgynlais

Joseph Anthony joined up in October 1939 and served until February 1949. I am tracing the service footsteps of my father (or trying to!). He was posted to the 3rd Monmouthshire Regiment, South Wales Borderers but seemed to spend most of his service with HQ, 159th Infantry Brigade.

He was wounded on 14th of September 1944 in northwest Europe but remained with his unit until he was wounded again (GSW to right ankle) on 23rd of September 1944 and medically evacuated to the UK. In May 1945, he was posted to the British Army of the Rhine and later served with 80 Graves Concentration Unit from November 1946. Any additional information or details about his service will be appreciated.
