Pte. Frank Emmanuel
British Army 6th Battalion Gordon Highlanders
from:Lonsdale Square, Islington
(d.8th August 1944)
Frankie Emmanuel was a very charismatic only child, a bit of a clown with a devil may care attitude, good looking and loved teasing people and carrying out pranks. He got into trouble after dressing up as an army captain and going out on the town. It was said when he was caught he tried to make light of it and his punishment was to be sent to the front line. His death was devastating to family and friends.
