George William CHAMBERS - 974483 - Lance Bombardier
75th Medium (Shropshire Yeomanry) Regiment. Royal Artillery
Killed In Action on the 12th April 1945 aged 29
Buried in the Faenza War Cemetery, Italy. (3.C.10.)

On the day of his death the unit was in action in the area near the Imola Bridge in Italy. No details are given in the Unit War Diary as to what happened but the SDCD states that the Regiment only lost 3 men throughout the whole of 1945.

Could his loss been as the result of an accident, or action?

Can anyone please tell me what was happening in the area at this closing stage of the war.

Regards

PAUL JOHNSON
