Pte. Robert William Platt
British Army Royal Field Artillery
from:Limehouse , London
I am trying to search some history on my Grandad R W Platt who, I believe, was aged about 15/16 upon joining the Army (possibly Royal Artillary) and would appreciate any information or assistance.
I was told that he was awarded a Medal for capturing and taking several German prisoners alive and back to Allied lines during some stage of the battle .
This is the only information I can recall so if anybody could assist,fill in the gaps or point me in the right direction this would be appreciated .Thank You
