This is my great-uncle Stanley Peppiatt. Stan served in the 13/18th Hussars and in the Wiltshire Yeomanry.
He was a Tanky in North Africa (with, I believe, the WYs) when he won the Military Medal. I have been told he had driven a truck into a minefield to rescue some injured soldiers.
After Africa he went onto fight at Monte Cassino, he died in 1995 at his home in Southall.
