L/Sgt. Richard John Lofts
British Army 2/4th Btn. Royal Hampshire Regiment
from:Firle
(d.1st July 1944)
I know very little about Dick Lofts. He was my uncle on my father's side of the family. I know he was wounded by a grenade or shell. They were unable to stop the bleeding or get him to a hospital in time.
He is buried in Assisi in Italy, where I have visited the war graves which are in the most beautiful setting.
My father, Robert Lofts before he died, wished to have his ashes interred with his brother.
