265210 C.Sgt. Reginald Percy Davies British Army 4th Btn. Royal Welch Fusiliers (d.20th Sep 1944) We adopted the grave of Reginald Davies.
He is one of the heroes who liberated us on the 17th of September 1944, our end of WW2 in Valkenswaard. He is buried at the war cemetery in my hometown, Valkenswaard.
My grandfather was a member of the Red Cross during WW2 and assisted helping wounded soldiers at the beginning of operation Market Garden which started in Valkenswaard. His home, where he and the rest of my mother’s family lived, was bombed when he was out for the Red Cross.
I am already trying for a while to find out more about Reginald to add information about him on the site of the foundation who tries to keep the memory alive of the men who liberated us and honor them, www.valkenswaardwarcemetery.nl.
I think I found out Reginald and his wife Margaret Elizabeth had a son, Peter Reginald Davies, who was born on the in 1936 and who died in May 1995.
It would be great to get, for instance, a picture to add to the name or find out if there are any living relatives of Reginald Percy.
Inviting relatives to Valkenswaard to remember the soldiers together would be very special, but a picture would also be great.
Could anyone please help me?
