Stanley John "Alec" Alexander
British Army Corps of Royal Signals
from:Fulham
I am trying to find out about my father's wartime experiences. His name was Stanley Alexander and he did not talk too much about his war. He was caught twice on the same day by the Japanese and escaped. I feel he had a tale to tell, but I would like to know the army side and any official records there may be. I have a copy of his Service record from joining the Gloucester's of which he was very proud, and then the Royal Signals in Burma and I think North Africa and Germany.
Any Details would be very welcome, both his Regiment and he himself.I also think part of his job was to be sent out and lay quiet and signal any troop movement he saw.
