Sad to advise that John Jeffries from K Section RCS attached to 4th Para Brigade died yesterday. Here is in the Fellowship tent at Ginkel where he was dropped on 18/9/44 and was wounded during his descent…RIP John.

It was such an honour to interview John Jeffries last year for @CWGC‘s sound archive. Do listen through to the end to hear John read his own poem about his fallen comrades. Rest in Peace, John.
