Pte. Edward Day
British Army 2nd Btn. Gordon Highlanders
from:Kentish Town, London
(d.16th August 1943)
Edward Day is buried in Kanchanaburi War Cemetery in Thailand.
I believe he was one of the very unlucky 600 soldiers that were chosen by the Japanese to be transferred to Thailand and forced to work on the railway.
Edward was the son of Arthur and Agnes Gwenneth Day (nee King)
