204764 Gnr. Richard " " Williams 140 Field Regiment from:Glamorgan (d.btwn 10th May 1940 & 26th June 1940) Gunner Richard Williams was, I believe my great Uncle, who left home around 1939-40 for WW2 never to return. He is listed on the Commonwealth Graves Commission website as having no known grave and he is on the Dunkirk Memorial in France. He was 21 and lost his life between 10th May 1940 & 26th June 1940. I never met him, but would like to understand what his role may have been, presumably during the fighting in the period around the evacuation of Dunkirk. I have been reading Hugh Sebag-Montefiore's amazing account of Dunkirk, but I have failed to connect Gunner Williams to any of the account of what happened. I realise that the fighting was intense and it is the nature of war that people get blown up, or bodies left behind in the course of action. I like to think he held off advancing Germans allowing others to get home, but any idea of what might have happened would be appreciated.
