Pte. Derrick Paul Gibson

British Army 4th Btn. Dorset Regiment

My dad, Derrick Gibson was called up for active service in 1944 on his 18th birthday. He did his training in Norfolk then was shipped over to Holland where he joined the 4th Dorsets. After the war finished he then completed his service by going to Palestine via Italy. I am in the process of looking into his war records with little success. I would also like to know how he got to Holland, I guess it was by ship and would like to know more details about his journey. I will carry on looking for more information
