Understanding Casualty/ POW Lists: William Leonard Burrows, 77 HAA Regt RA

Thank you Graham, I know I digress a lot, but I am curious, thank goodness, that's how you find out things, I suppose. I do appreciate the extra information, even though we have gone off piste a bit, but very interesting, and an added thread to the story of these poor men who were caught up in the war. Bless their hearts. Much appreciated. Kindest regards, Mavis

 

William Leonard Burrows was my Grandads brother. I knew that he had a war grave in Yokohama and nothing else. My Grandad, Albert Burrows, was one of 4 brothers. All of them went to war. Only 2 of them came home. His brother that came home with him tragically took his own life a few years later. My Grandad Albert managed to live a healthy life until he was 90 and passed away in 2010. Thank you very much for sharing all of this information. X
