Sgt. Walter Carrington
British Army 77th (Highland) Field Regiment Royal Artillery
from:41 Abbey Road, Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire
My father Walter Carrington served in North Africa, at El Alamein I believe, then into Italy and eventually Greece, where I think he was wounded by a piece of shrapnel from a grenade thrown by a woman. My parents separated in 1954 or 1955. With my mother, he had 5 children including triplet boys born in 1950.
