I joined the Army in 1944, aged 17yr 10mths, into the DCLI in Bodmin. I was first sent to Durham for my 9 weeks training then I was posted to Colchester.
From there I went to Farnborough as a holding base before being posted to Salisbury as a driver to Brigadier Greenacre, who was second-in-command to General Montgomery.
My job was to take him around looking for campsites for the Territorial Army.
