Sgt. Arthur Holbrook
British Army 4th (Armd) Btn. Grenadier Guards
from:Hayes
I know a little about Arthur Holbrook only because he opened up to me as I had joined the Armed Forces myself, his only grandson to do so, so we had that very little but brief bond.
He told me about his involvement in Operation Bluecoat which I understand was an Armoured Brigade Assault. He spoke to me of Normandy having landed there towards the end of June after the main Operation Overlord landings. His medals are now on display on a wall at the Grenadier Guards Club in Windsor but I've not been there since he passed.
