Pte. Frank Naylor
British Army 7th Battalion Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders
from:Dudley
Frank Naylor was my Grandfather and was in the 7th Battalion, 15 Platoon, C Company between 1942 and 1945. Unfortunately, he died around 1954, so I never met him, but I do possess some of his wartime letters to my Grandmother, along with various bits and pieces related to the Regiment (HD and 3 stripes sleeve insignia, glengarry, TOS cap badge, webbing belt and a silver "For King & Country Services Rendered" badge, which I assume was issued when he caught malaria in Sicily?). I understand from reading the letters and photographs, that he served in North Africa, Sicily and finally Northern Europe.
I would be very interested if anyone has any further information related to him and his friends and what they would have experienced at the time.
