John Kelly
British Army 8th Army
Ny grandfather John Kelly fought in the 8th Army in North Africa and Italy and was involved in the Battle of Monte Cassino. He stayed in Austria for a month after the end of the war before coming home. He told me that he was known as `Two mine Kelly' because he had stood on two land mines and managed to survive both. He was friends with a man nicknamed `Lofty'.
