Dvr. Frederick Derrick "Stuart" Alecock
British Army Royal Army Service Corps
from:Mildenhall, Suffolk
(d.15th Dec 1944)
Frederick Derrick Alecock was born in Mildenhall, Suffolk and was baptised on 2nd of Aug 1924 at St Mary’s Church, Mildenhall. He was the son of Marion Evelyn Alecock (later Clark). Derrick never knew his father and lived with his grandparents, aunts and uncles in Mildenhall. He joined the RASC and family legend only knows that he died in a motorcycle accident aged only 20 years in Belgium on the 15th of Dec 1944. He is buried at Brussels Town Cemetery. We think he was a despatch driver. Can any Military Historians give any addition information to this post? I am in the process of applying for his service records which may help more with a given coy and theatre of war details etc etc. I am not very good with military history. I have looked more into family history. Although, I am giving it a go any further information would be appreciated.
