Private Guille "Bill" William

British Army 5th Btn Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry

from:Guernsey

My Great Grandad Bill Guille was evacuated from Guernsey just before the German invasion/occupation.

He enlisted into 5th Battalion Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry, I believe in July 1940.

The only things I know about his service are that he guarded a place where the transatlantic telegram cables came ashore and was shot in the knee somewhere near a bridge in the Netherlands. He survived the was and returned to Guernsey. I'd love to know more about his service!
