George Tilley joined the 6th after Salerno, fought at Monte Casino and with the 6th until it was disbanded. Survivors transferred to the 5th Grenadiers to bring it up to strength.

Did not see any action with the 3rd and returned to the UK to be re-trained to fight the Japanese. Luckily war ended before they were sent overseas.
