What a good fella, admirable, and an absolute honour for his late father. Five casualties named John Wadsworth (from World War Two) on CWGC, one of whom is Eddie's dad I guess. Thanks for posting the link to the Beeb story up SteveDee, very much appreciated. Kind regards, always, Jim.
Think this chap is likely Eddie's pop. Private WADSWORTH, JOHN Service Number 5120466 Died 17/02/1944 Aged 33 7th Bn.
