Any information ref my late father's award of the Military Cross, he was seconded to the North Irish Horse in North Africa from Engineers, involved in adaptation of our tanks on seing a feature on German tank according to post in North Irish Horse log/calendar, also went up through Italy recall him mentioning Monte Casino. His regiment was R.E.M.E., retired as a Major. Any other info would be appreciated. He didn't tell us anything about his award of the M.C., I can't find mention of it in London Gazette, any other sources? !!
Many Thanks Paul Whatley
