I don't know the year he died or where. I would like to learn more about him. When I was at Edinburgh Castle a few years ago they had books you could look through and find people and they have that information in the books but I don't know igniting available online. Also can anyone identify this British Army patch? It is my grandfather's from the late 1950s early 1960s. I think I signifies he was an electrical or mechanical engineer but I am unsure. Any help is much appreciated thanks!
