Torquay: WWII D-Day Memorial – We Remember the Allied Soldiers (17.4.2019)

This was when the US Government fought on the rightside of history – as an ally of the Soviet Union! We respect everyone who fought against fascism with us during that terrible war! It is a sobering thought that many of these brave young men never returned alive. They fought and died for our freedom not to live under fascism! How different things are today, with the US Government supporting Zionist Israel and Neo-Nazism in the Ukraine!

Alfred Gregory Wyles (1916-1976) – (WWII) War Record 1940-1946 (Military No: 5117194) 1st Buckinghamshire Battalion (LightBobs) – Oxford & Buckinghamshire Light Infantry (Territorial Army)

Military records are precise and concise and convey very little about the reality of war. As a family we do not subscribe to the notion of imperialist war, but we are proud that our grandfather volunteered to join the British Army to fight fascism in the 1940’s.
