I am looking to contact anybody I may have met or known from the 97th HAA, 8th Army. Especially anybody who remembers Milan and the Partisans street parties after the hanging of Mousolini.

My late Father-in-law was attached to REME and served in Hellipolis [Cairo ] amongst other places. His name was Percival Damen and had bright ginger hair. I know that he was on a Court Martial for something - any info that you had would be greatly appreciated.
