Lt. Ian Lester MacDonald
British Army 5th Btn. Black Watch
from:Santiago, Chile
(d.25th Feb 1945)
My uncle Ian MacDonald was born in Scotland in 1923. He grew up until age 13 in Chile with his parents, then was sent to Loretto School near Edinburgh.
The full account of his short but glorious life has recently been published in 2017. I transcribed it from my grandfather's handwritten account.
