Gnr. John William "Jack" Cooper
British Army 55th Field Regiment Royal Artillery
from:Sherwood, Nottingham
My Dad, Robert Arthur Riddaway was a gunner with the 55th Field Regiment R.A. I have my Dad's Soldier's Will with all his service details on it, witnessed by Leonard James Halstead, Bombardier 974047 55th Field Reg. RA and dated 23rd September 1943. His medals (which my mother always kept in her dressing table drawer) were missing after her death. I know that he was at Arnham but would love to find out more.
