Comments: My Grandad, Andrew McDermott was killed in action in Kohima on April 28th 1944 - he was 27 years old. I have very little information on him and am hoping that someone would recognise his name and maybe have some stories to tell. He was a L. Sgt - 3453618 and served with the 1/8 batt, A Coy 9 platoon, L Fus, India Command. His date of birth was 15/12/16. Thank you.

Comments: My grandfather Lance Corporal Joseph Tattersall was in the 1/8th Bn. He died 03 June 1944. I'd be very interested to hear from anyone who knew or served with him.
Thanks for creating a site that brings the grandfather I never knew to life.

Comments: Iwas wounded on Merema Ridge on 26 Apl 1944 during an attack on a Jap bunker and thus did not get as far as Point 5120. After treatment I was carried my Naga tribesmen back down the chaung and up the other side to Zubza. Brigadier V F S Hawkins, himself an LF, recounts in his memoirs "My immediate thought as I fell was of astonishment. I had been hit twice in the last war as a Subaltern which was comprehensible.
I remember vaguely two men of the Lancashire Fusiliers dragging me out of the hut."
