My parents: Francis Morgan Evans - known as Mike - and Monica (nee Warwick) Evans were towers of strength and stoic achievment against the adversity of WW2.
My father was in the Royal Artillery and walked his way and rode his way down Norway in 1944/45 as the Germans retreated, and my mother refused to leave the school she taught PE in all through the bombing of East London.
She worked for a "Kinder Transport" organisation before the war, and her most terrifying experiences were the border crossing between German and Belgium at Aachen. Many years later, when we first went on holiday in Jugoslavia in 1959 I can remember her shaking in the car at the sight of the machine guns and uniforms......
Their families were all from Northmapton and Wellingborough, but my parents were the only ones who really "fought" in any way - my mum had this great moral conviction about the re-construction of Europe.....
However, I have found some amazing photos of both my father's time in the Royal Artillery and an uncle...which has turned up connections with Raymond Baxter in 602 Squadron ....
More later.
