Dvr. Harry Colclough
British Army H.Q. 6 Assault Sqn. Royal Engineers

(d.26th Sep 1944)
Harry Colclough was my grandfather and died near Calais in action around 26th of September 1944. This coincides with the Canadian assault on Calais My mother was only aged 8 when he died and spent her life wondering what happened to him. I have been looking at what might have occurred and I wonder if he was involved in the assault on Calais This was operation Undergo. Any information would be invaluable.
