I believe our very own Brian 'Sapper' Guy served with the 246 Field Coy, RE, and was there on Sword Beach on D-Day. Sapper Cox may have been one of his mates. RIP. Sapper LW Cox, 246 Field Coy, RE. If you see this Brian, I trust you are keeping well! Best, Steve. PS. Apologies for posting two days late, but just back from holiday this afternoon.
