Alan James Blacker
British Army 51st (Highland) Reconnaissance Regiment
from:Glastonbury, Somerset
Alan Blacker is my father. Unfortunately, upon being deployed to Egypt he got such a sunburn on his face and hands that he was eventually shipped back home. He has ginger hair and fair skin, and was unable to adjust to the environment. I believe he was in hospital in Lebanon when El Alamein started.
