Harry Mitchell
British Army 128th Highland Field Regiment Royal Artillery
from:Dingle, Liverpool
My Granddad, Harry Mitchell, served in the Army in the Second World War but I have very little information as to his activities. All I know is that he may have served in the following: 128th (Highland) Field Regiment RA (TA)
I've been told by my mother that he was posted to Africa and Malta and he was an anti aircraft gunner but I'm sure if this is correct.
My Granddad was from Liverpool and was married to Frances Mabel Scattergood in 1945. I know he went on to work as a Crane driver at Liverpool docks and after leaving Liverpool in the seventies he and my Nan moved to Skelmersdale where he lived until his death in 1995.
I would like to know more about what he did when he was in the Army and also his life after the War.
I am looking for any information about his life from anyone who knew him during the War and after. Did you work with him at the docks in Liverpool? Maybe you remember my Nan, Frances? Any information would be great.
