William Arthur Brookes
British Army

I am trying to trace my Dad's military life during the war. I know that he served in North Africa and was wounded there. I think he was sent back to the UK for treatment and met my Mum. He also served in Italy and I recollect a long lost photo that was taken in Yugoslavia. I think he was in either a tank unit or artillery, with the 8th Army. His name was Willian Arthur Brookes and he hailed from Bolton, Lancashire.
