One of those poor souls who didn't make it. Thank you Andrzejku.
My father was in the 7th Horse Artillery and is the left of the 3 soldiers pictured.
Not sure where the pictures were taken, presume it's Italy.
MCC no. 32479.
Rgds, Richard.

Welcome to the forum Richard and thanks for posting those images. The picture of your dad an his buddies having a drink was taken in Palestine (now Israel) as you can see some Hebrew script on a sign behind them. Was probably a cafe/bar in Tel Aviv which was a popular place to visit for allied soldiers particularly the Poles.
