Robert Mills Jack Williamson
British Army Highland Light Infantry
from:Bridgetown, Glasgow
I know that my father Robert Williamson, his father Martin Williamson as well as my dad's older brother John Williamson all served with the HLI. My father had many stories about Egypt and I am sure he was in Italy, he learned Italian in the war. I wish that I had listened so much more to his stories, now I am an adult, and about to marry a Captain in the Canadian Military. My Grandfather Martin was in the First and Second World War and died eventually with shrapnell problems and bouts of malaria. My Uncle JOhn also had shrapnel wounds. I do remember a story about his battalian coming home on ships and they were giving whisky to people which, knowing my Dad and his like of a dram, sounds doubtful! IF anyone can tell me his battalion or any information I would be grateful.
