Rflmn. Enoch Frederick Griffin
British Army 2nd Btn. Cameronians (Scottish Rifles)
from:Wolverhampton
(d.27th May 1940)
I never knew my uncle Fred Griffin, only that he was a kind and caring man who, when on leave, used to throw his spare change to the children playing in the streets.
When he was killed whilst fighting in Belgium in 1940, he was recognised from a letter found in his pocket.
Unfortunately the letter was from or to my father, John Llewellyn Griffin and it was my father's name that was engraved on my uncle's grave stone in Esquelmes war cemetery in Belgium.
