235961 Pte. George Young Brydon British Army 5th Btn. Black Watch from:Dunbar, East Lothian My dad George Brydon, my hero, who will be 91 this December, is due to be awarded France's highest honour, the Chevalier de l'Ordre National de la Legion d'Honneur next month for his part in the liberation of France during 1944-45 when he was just 18 years old. He was a soldier in the 5th Battalion, Black Watch and fought through Normandy against the feared Waffen SS, until he was severely wounded by mortar shrapnel trying to reach the River Seine at Mauny, before the Germans could blow the bridges and stop the Allied advance through Northwestern Europe. He is now one of only three soldiers left in the 5th Battalion The Black Watch, who fought during WWII. We are who we are today because of their courage and sacrifice.
