Thanks Andrew Bannernan-Bayles Some photos of my Great Uncle, Bertie Parkin, 3252568, Rifleman with 1st Battalion Cameronians taken late 1941/early 1942 when the regiment was stationed at Meadows Barracks, Trimulgherry, India prior to being shipped to Burma. Bertie was badly wounded in April 1942 during the British retreat from Singapore. He died 3 or 4 days later in a Japanese POW camp (possibly Rangoon prison). His name is remembered on the memorial in his home village of Butterknowle, County Durham and on the huge Rangoon Memorial in Burma (now Myanmar) which lists over 27000 men who gave their lives in Burma and Assam in the service of the British Crown but whose remains were never recovered. |
