Cpl. Sidney Walter Sumpter
British Army 1st Btn. Duke of Cornwalls Light Infantry
I understand that my father Sidney Sumpter joined the DCLI in 1936 and served in India. Then he was sent to Egypt or that area, then to Gibratar and then to the UK. I didn't talk to him in any depth on his military history but his role after that was home based.
