Brother Knights<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Did any of your relatives serve in the 1939 to 1945 World War?<\/p>\n

We would welcome photographs of parents, grandparents or other
\nrelatives who contributed to the War effort, in any avenue of life, to be
\nincluded on a dedicated page on the KT Website.<\/p>\n

Whilst we live through our time of disruption, it would perhaps be a fitting
\ntribute to those who gave so much during those years of conflict, and the
\nrecent celebration of Victory in Europe seventy five years ago seems to be
\nthe ideal time to do so.<\/p>\n

Photographs with a short descriptive caption may be emailed to the
\nProvincial Webmaster, Kt.Steve Parker, at  steveparker1@btinternet.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

V.E.Kt.Alan Pierce, P.Gt.Reg.<\/strong>

next we have one from William Munroe. A nice family photo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sapper David Edward Munroe was in the Royal Engineers in North Africa, Italy Monte Casino and Dunkirk. 
\nHe was a member of the Dunkirk Veterans Association in Corby Northants. and carried the banner at Remembrance parades each year until his passing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

and now a memorable photograph and story from Garth Cobley, St. David’s Preceptory<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
I’ve enclosed a picture of my late uncle Sergeant Major Jack Cobley with my Auntie Nellie who are on the right of the picture,
They are on their way to Buckingham Palace for Jack to receive the George Cross for his part in the Siege of Malta,<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

Also from Garth,<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
I would like to share this story with you,
It started in 1964. My Btn, 1st Green Jackets, were on active service in the Sarawak Borneo, on a fighting patrol in the jungle for 7 days. Our lead scout heard baby’s crying. Thinking this was a trap, we cleared the area and found two baby twin girls. They were not long born and had been abandoned. Luckily we had two married men with us who knew what to do. One of them, Stevo, and his wife, couldn’t have children so to cut the story short he adopted them both. My wife and I used to babysit them,
In the picture is myself and the twins  at there father’s funeral last year, the first time that we had meet in over fifty years.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

Next we have a Victoria Cross holder from the RAF – not many of those!<\/p>\n

E. Kt Stephen Carter PPr2nd Const.  (PPrOrg) of de Lisle Adam Preceptory no 234 and Haliwerfolc Preceptory no 233 (meeting in Durham)
\nrecounts the details of his mother’s cousin Sgt. Thomas Gray of No. 12<\/a> Squadron.<\/a><\/span>\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

A raid was carried out on bridges over the Albert Canal in Belgium on 12th May 1940,   just days before Dunkirk.  <\/p>\n

The raid was by five planes (three crew in each plane) led by Pilot Officer Garland,  Sgt Gray and LAC Reynolds. One bridge was destroyed by Garland but of the 15 total crew, 6 died, eight were taken as PoWs and one escaped back to base.<\/p>\n

Pilot Officer Garland was awarded the VC for his leadership and  Sgt Gray for his ” coolness and resource in navigating the lead aircraft under the most difficult conditions”  There is no mention of the rear gunner Reynolds!!    
\nGarland, Gray and Reynolds were buried secretly by the locals and re-interred side by side in the Heverlee Cemetery, Leuven near Brussels
\nafter the war by the Allies.  I visited the Cemetery in 1992. (picture below)
\nPilot Officer Garland and Sgt Gray are on the honours board at Cosworth RAF Museum and their photos hang on the wall at the Union Jack Club in London.<\/p>\n
