Any family history in WW2?


Any posters here want to share their ancestors history serving in WW2? I have an interest in this era, my grandfather served in Burma as did my great uncle. You got any items left to you from their service and if so what?

na, I've got that all jumbled up a bit,
"River Clyde" was the coal-barge/modified two-bob landing ship, (needed another boat to moor between it and beach to act as stepping sone anyway ) , Hampshires, Munster Fusiliers and Dublin Fusiliers at V-beach,
Lancashire Fusiliers at W-beach,
Hunter-Weston the overall commander,
all a bloody shambles anyway, lol..
