Gnr. Stanley William Summers Higby
British Army 57th Field Regiment Royal Artillery
from:Leigh on Sea, Essex
Stanley Higby was my late granddad. He served with the 57th Field regiment he never really spoke about his experiences of ww2 but just told us "If it had not have been for some young German soldiers he would not have survived the war. The heavy vehicle he was traveling in overturned and these young soldiers dragged him out of the vehicle to safety." My granddad passed away in 1999, I would love to know more about his time in the Royal Artillery as my two eldest children now serve with the regiment. He was a great man, my hero.
