Arthur Thomas Wells
British Army 60 Special Company Royal Engineers
from:Dover, Kent
My late father, Arthur Thomas Wells, served in Italy, I believe, somewhere near Naples, in World War 2. He was a member of 60 Special Company of the Royal Engineers, but I am unable to find anything out about his role. He enlisted as a Photography Assistant, but that is almost all I know.
There was a report, some years ago about the Unit being involved with deception, but that is from someone who joined in 1946, even the forces records can't trace my father or his unit. There doesn't even seem to be any Association for the 60 Special Company, they don't appear to Parade in their own right on Rembemerance Day. Another one of the forgotten sections of the conflict.
