A/Cpl. Alfred George Perryman . British Army Royal Army Medical Corps from Horsham, Sussex Alfred Perryman joined up on the 30th October 1906 aged 18 and was sent to India. In 1911 he was shown on the census as being in Egypt. However he was in India in August 1914, and sailed to Britain, landing at Devonport on 18th of November 1914. They suffered badly as they still had there tropical uniforms. They were then moved to Magdalen Hill near Winchester and sent to France on 20th of December 1914. The 4th Battalion was sent to Salonika in November 1915 but Alfred appears to have stayed in France according to his record card. My father, his son, has said he was gassed in 1917 and was awarded the Silver War Badge No.246749, but as records missing we cannot find anything else so far. He was awarded 'pip,squeak and wilfred' medals. He also joined the RAMC in WW2.

Editor's note: Although 460 Squadron was an Australian Squadron, it like all squadrons was made up of men from across the commonwealth.

Jack Peter . 7thBatt'n from Lochee, Dundee, Scotland I think that my paternal uncle Jack/John Peter is one of the men in your photo of the 7th Battalion. He is the second from the left (looking at the photo) of the men who are kneeling. He was in the Pipe Band. He was a barber, having taken over the business and shop of his father, and my paternal grandfather, after whom I was named. My grandfather was very badly injured in WW1. I am well into my 60s now, so interested in family history. Sadly most of them are no longer with us.
Regards,
Bill Peter

Pte. Christopher A. Peters . British Army 1st Battalion Rifle Brigade from London Chris Peters was a member of the 1st Battalion, The Rifle Brigade in the Second World War. He admitted that he found Army discipline difficult at first but soon became an accomplished Rifleman within the Battalion.
He landed on the Normandy Beaches and amazingly survived the campaigns throughout France, Belgium and Holland and the breakthrough into Germany as part of 22nd Armoured Brigade within 7th Armoured Division. He operated throughout in mechanized platoon in a Bren Gun Carrier. He proudly wore the Red "Desert Gerboa" on the sleeves of his battledress and this was captured in a superb portrait by a German National with whom he was billeted immediately after the war north of Hamburg.
He was a proud soldier and returned home to create a very successful building and construction business in London and had his own horse in stables close to Hyde Park Corner and frequently rode out in Rotten Row. He regrettably died of cancer in Rottingdean in Sussex many years after the end of the war.

Pte Ernest Dominic Peters . Canadian Army North Nova Scotia Highlanders from L'Ardoise, Nova Scotia My Grandfather was captured during the D-Day invasions near Authie, France. He was taken prisoner by Kurt Meyers Division. After he was captured he was shortly after force marched to Rennes where his group was accidentally strafed by US aircraft. He managed to survive and ended up in a POW camp in Rennes. While in the POW camp, the allies bombed the area, including the POW camp he was held captive and was hit by shrapnel in the leg. He ended up in the hospital where his leg needed to be reattached by the Germans. He spent around 10-12 days in the hospital where he was then put in a box car and shipped off to Germany. He was documented staying in Stalag IV B and was later moved to another POW camp. He managed to survive all of this and went on to testify in the Kurt Meyer trial. I am still digging for more information.
