Cpl. Harry John Carran

British Army 1st Btn. Kings Royal Rifle Corps

from:London

(d.30th Apr 1943)

I have only just come into possession of a number of letters written by a Lieut.J Millbourn and Capt. J.B. Cunningham to my aunt informing her of my uncle Harry Curran's death and I was impressed by the humanity and barely concealed sadness and exhaustion behind the words. Our family had not been aware of how and where he had died as he had married shortly before his death and we have no knowledge of what happened to his wife. However, I like so may of my generation, am immensely proud of my uncle and the part he played in the war and I want people to remember him
