We discovered a prayer book today in the stores given to L/Sgt #Baskeyfield VC in Lincoln Cathedral upon his return from #Sicily. The 2nd South #Staffords were based in Woodhall Spa, #Lincolnshire before they departed for #Arnhem in 1944. Jason Peach #airborne #glider #ww2

We are commenting #VJDay75 and remembering the #ForgottenArmy .The South #Staffords fought as part of the #Chindits force pushing through Burma against the Japanese. The day marked the end of #WorldWarII and peace across the world.
