Pte. John Welsh
British Army 1st Btn. South Lancashire Regiment
(d.29th June 1944)
My great uncle John Welsh was in the 1st Battalion, South Lancashire Regiment. He served during the D-day invasion and was just 22 years old. His birthday was on D-day and he survived until the 29th of June 1944 when he died from wounds. He is buried at Hermanville War Cemetery, France. I have no photos of him and no first grave marker. If anyone has any information on this soldier or a photo of him, it would be gratefully appreciated.
