Gentlemen, I have found a walt, i refer back to septic walt found in france, as my learned friend said on there, para reg was no formed until 1941, this walt claims to have been a para in 1940, and marched with 400 paras to be a pow.
Research whether 400 paras were captured in one go, the bloke seems to wear a maroon beret, no badge, and medals, but would he have got a medal for being pow for 4 years, and would he have been sent home after.
He ended up a builder and farmer, but speaks little of the war, except to say he is a para, can we get some confirmation of facts please, as was going to arrange a tour at colchester for him, but dont want to if hes a walt, if he is a walt, will take his beret.
Though fo the day, the world is full of walts
