Sadly my dad passed away and i am looking to find anyone with any pictures or newspaper cuttings, in reference to the Glorious Gloucesters and there involvement and movements in the Korean War. Its thanks to everyone that writes on these sites of there memories or storys that have been passed on that i myself and many others can piece the missing bits of information together that can no longer be passed on to me by my dad. I look forward to hearing from anyone with any information with regard to the above.
