HW, a lot of effort has gone into collating those lists, I applaud your endeavour and tenacity.

 

And I greatly appreciate the help and encouragement that you and others have given me. I am still finding new snippets of information but appear to have exhausted all known resources in the public domain.

 

fantastic effort highwood! Rose kenneth douglas service number 5730257 thanks to you and bamboo for all your help in this , mike rose

 

I had the number for Kenneth Rose but as I have three separate back up lists it is a job to bring all the information together. I have just spent a few days checking and rechecking the alphabetical list from which I have extracted these three columns and it has more first names than any other version.

 

Superb effort HW. Just thinking...if you’re still around in 2045 then the hundred year closure will end and all the records will be available. Sadly it will be too late for me!

Thank you but it isn't finished yet, still plenty of refining to do. I will be 86 if I make it to 2045 and probably won't be in a fit state to carry on researching. If they use the 75 year rule as they did for the Great War services papers, I might just have a chance.

 

That’s a good point about the release of the Great War service records. I wonder if there is any intention of this for WW2 records by the authorities?

3775183 Pte Henry Arthur Gallagher. Killed in Action 28th March 1944. Buried in the Taukkyan War Cemetery, Rangoon.

Pte Henry Gallagher, aged 24, youngest son of Mr and Mrs R.J. Gallagher, 31 Arkle Road, Birkenhead, was killed in action on March 28th. He went to India in January 1942, and formerly was with the L.M.S. railway at Birkenhead South, and was known as "Hughie" to his workmates.

Liverpool Echo 12th May 1944.

 

My father's service record shows that he was evacuated from the "Concessional Area" on August 3rd 1944.

 

Many thanks, I have updated his entry on my spread sheet.

 

07/04/1944 N/A The King's Regiment 3771821 Sgt. Manning. James Patrick. KiA. CWGC 5th Battalion Rangoon Memorial. Age 31. Liverpool, Lancashire.

This is clearly an anomaly as the 5th Btn of The King's Regiment (Liverpool), did not serve in India or Burma. Sgt Manning's death occurred during the time frame of Operation Thursday and, his commemoration on the Rangoon Memorial would suggest service in Burma. There is a suggestion that he may have been at Imphal, which is possible, but clearly not with the 5th Btn, The King's Regiment.

Casualty

 

The Casualty List does not mention a battalion and drops the second initial.


The newspaper article that appeared in the Liverpool Echo on the 16th June 1944 suggests that he was killed in India.

Information has been received by Mrs Manning, 1 Teilo Street, Liverpool, that her husband, Sergeant James Manning, has been killed in India. He was an old pupil of Holy Cross School, and had been abroad for four years.

 

Hello Sir
I only just joined the forum today.
I am the youngest son of 3771527 82 L/Cpl Dobie Albert E
I was wondering if you could share anything about him.
My father passed away in 1988 but this year would be his 100th anniversary of his birth 12 September 1920.
My father had 11 children and many many grandchildren, we will be all gathering to celebrate his 100th so any stories I could share with my family would be much appreciated.
Thanks

 

Hello and welcome to the forum. This is his full entry on my spreadsheet

The King's Regiment. Army Number 3771527. 82 Column. L/Cpl Dobie Albert Edward Wounded: Date Not Recorded. Mentioned in From Dingle To Delhi, page 106. "Severely wounded in the legs, having one of his kneecaps shot away" at Mogaung. 77 Brigade Message 8611 Wounded In Action 04/06/1944 Born: 1920 Liverpool.

The above shows that he originally enlisted in the King's Regiment (Liverpool) and remained with them throughout his service. He appears in the official casualty lists as having been wounded but with no date recorded. Strangely, he is also mentioned in the 77th Brigade Signals traffic as being wounded on the 4th June 1944. At this time remnants of 82 Column were involved in the fighting around Mogaung in northern Burma.

Albert Dobie is also one of the few soldiers mentioned by name in Jack Lindo's book from Dingle to Delhi.

"After we came down from the hills onto the Mogaung plain, and had suffered our first casualty, we of the King's Company, now attached to the Lancashire Fusiliers, were told to go and remove some Japs who were occupying a hill. We set off along a track leading to this hill, we were about 80 strong. The leading section, led by Corporal Dobie, the section leader came under fire. Corporal Dobie was severely wounded in the legs, having one of his knee caps shot away".

 

Jack's description of the injury was 100% accurate and after he was shot he was carried by gurkhas to a plane that got him out.
I think he ended up in a hospital in Bombay they saved his leg by fusing it at the knee joint causing a stiff leg for the remainder of his life..
The 4th June is also accurate he used to drink a toast the guy that shot him on this date every year.
Thank you so much!

 

You are welcome and thank you for adding the little details that clearly show the character of the men like your father, who personify the spirit of the men who fought in Burma. Bless them all.

 

Yes sir!
Bless them all.
