Pte. Samuel James Hellard

Royal Marines 42 Commando

from:Winchester, Hampshire

My grandfather, Samuel Hellard, I was told, was in the Royal Marines and I have a pile of old photos he took during the Second World War which show him in Ceylon and Egypt but also show him on board ship with other ships on fire in front of him. They also show an aircraft on fire, blown up and also German prisoners of war and German graves.

He never spoke about it so no one knows for sure who he was with. We think it was 42 Commando, Royal Marines.
