Re: My Grandfather
Looks like your Grandfather was in the same Division as my Father, and Uncle; though they were in the Recon section (Part of The Royal Armoured Corps) 
43rd Wessex was also involved with Caen (Hill 112), the Reichswald campaign, and much more, apart from the race to Arnhem.
Good to have you onboard, Steve
