L/Cpl. Harry Nuttall . British Army 17th GT Company Royal Army Service Corps from Whitefield, Lancashire
Harry Nuttall was 19 when WWII broke out. Harry and his dad were fishing near a railway signal box in England and the signalman shouted to them that the British government had declared war on Germany. Harry wanted to join the army straight away, but his mother remembered the dead and wounded from WWI and made Harry promise to wait until he was called up.
Harry enlisted at the age of 20 in 1940 and was proud to have fought for his country. After various postings around the UK, Harry was in Scotland when he was told he was being posted overseas. The troop ship took him all the way round Africa to get to Egypt and Harry was involved in the North Africa campaign and subsequently the Italian campaign with the British 8th Army.
