    If this is the same guy he seems to have a great fondness for `wedding cake` :)

    There may be even more! Heres another from 1958! Not a great picture but a possible resemblance?

  8. I have written a book on the Royl Sussex Regiment 1921-1966, and have every M.M. citatation except a 9th Bn. awarded in 1950 instead of the original M.I.D. The only Binstead to get a M.M. was in WWI,G/ 2432 Ernest Binstead 8th Bn. RSR, he was from Haywards Heath. From my book 1864-1920. This Binstead is a complete LIAR.
