235859 Tpr. Sydney Barker British Army 43rd Recce Regiment Reconnaissance Corps from:Bradford Sydney Barker was my father and as he did not talk about his war experiences I am now trying to find out more about his service. I know he landed in Normandy late June 1944 following the loss of a large number of men of the regiment on D Day when their boat was blown up by a mine. I know nothing much, myself, other than I know he received a gun shot wound to his arm on 3rd March 1945 somewhere near the German border in Holland. He was discharged in 1947. Sadly, my father died in 1987 from chest problems and other ailments which we believe came from his wartime service Please type your message:      We recommend you copy the text about this item and keep a copy on your own computer before pressing submit.
