George Arthur Poyner
British Army
Sadly my father, George Poyner, died in 1978 and told us little or nothing about his army life, I have a few very tatty papers and a Regular army book with a certificate of discharge and as far as I can make out his army number was T.5247540. I know that he was in Holland in the war because he told me to look up some people that he met while in Holland. I did just that and the man that I spoke with remembered him well. This was in Venray and the house we were in was the very same house that my father visited in the war only then the windows and the roof had been blown off by a bomb. I would like to find out more about my father and his army background.
