Tracing my grandfather

Hi,

I'm trying to find out about my grandfather. He served in this regiment during World War two and was regimental sergeant major. His name was Sidney Castro. I don't know which battalion he was in and much has been lost, since he died so I don't know his service number. I do know that he served in Italy and North Africa, I know he was wounded in action and I think his battalion was based in Maidstone.

If anyone can help, or advise me I'd be really grateful.

Thanks,

Oliver

Re: Tracing my grandfather

Your grandfather is a hero. Hopefully someone could help you with this. I remember my grandfather, he also served in this regiment. He has lot of stories about war that I keep on listening when I was a kid. Today, he is still lovely and enjoyed playing with my kids these games https://s3.amazonaws.com/subwaysurfers/index.html and go to the store
