James Evans
British Army The Buffs
My Uncle Jim Evans was a Desert Rat in WW11. I believe he was with The Buffs. I found three diaries which I am offering to the Imperial War Museum shortly. They contain lots of everyday writing but he seems to be in transport as he speaks quite often of 'Dixie' which appears to have been his lorry. He mentions a man called Darkie and an officer called Blakeland. He spent a lot of time in Rome and he also used to like mending watches. Not a lot that I know but someone may remember him.
