Pte. Eric Albert Milner Nix
British army 1st Btn. Somerset Light Infantry
from:Carlton, Nottingham
My grandpa Eric Nix was enlisted on the 5th of March 1940 and was deployed to Burma as a foot soldier. The memories he shared with us was were getting carried by the current in the Ganges and seeing lots of bodies pass him by. He was in Burma for a few years with his infantry before falling ill and spending some time in the military hospital until he was better to be sent home.
