John "Daniel" Jones
British Army Royal Engineers
from:Rhondda
My father John Jones was initially posted to Catterick for training in the early 1940s as a conscripted serviceman. He became Captain in charge of Quartermaster stores. He was then posted to Delhi where his division were stationed at the Red Fort. From there onto the beaches of Malaya and the jungles of Burma. He loved his time in the Army and always talked about his experiences fondly; he made so many friends and he always said that it made him grow as a person.
