Pte. Robert Wills Milligan
British Army 1st Btn. Highland Light Infantry
from:Glasgow
(d.15th Jun 1945)
My uncle Robert Milligan served in the 1st battalion in WW2.
All I know is that he died on the 15th of June 1945 about 5 weeks after the war finished.
One story in the family is that he was driving a truck with prisoners on board and was ambushed by German soldiers still loyal to Hitler.
Any info would be appreciated.
