L/Cpl. Charles Frederick Baldwin
British Army 8th Btn. King's Own Royal Regiment (Lancaster)
from:Winchester
(d.28th May 1940)
Charles Baldwin was my great, great uncle. From what I know of him he was a kind and funny man who my grandad remembers fondly.
He was at Dunkirk fighting in the rearguard and I believe he was hit by either a shell or bomb and killed. His charred wallet was posted home to his mother. He was 33 and had no children.
