This weekend my father is ninety, yes ninety. What happened since in those years is a history of the world in a short space of time.
1932 was a difficult year. In the States, Roosevelt defeated Hoover by an landslide against the depression as a background.
In Germany Hitler lost to Paul von Hindenburg in 1932, but his revenge against was far from over.
Maybe it was the moustaches that won it!
But a better man, my father I have never known. From Wales to Camberley where he was commissioned into The Essex Regiment he served in Korea, Hong Kong and BAOR Germany.
I want these pictures to tell his story.
Always smiling, never complaining, and here for his family over those years.
Happy Birthday father.
