War dead, WW2 i

Commemorated on a memorial as having died in WW2.

Born Scotland but brought up in Kent. His WW2 job involved defusing mines washed up on British beaches. Working in the Bridlington Bay area he defused a bomb and then put the fuse and detonator in his pocket for later examination. Walking through a local town he slipped on ice and the fall caused an explosion which killed him. See the Picture source for more information.
