This story has been written onto the 大象传媒 People鈥檚 War site by CSV Storygatherer, Martine Knight, on behalf of Arthur Morgan, who told his story to CSV Storygatherer Chris Knight.
I joined the Army in 1944, aged 17yr 10mths, into the DCLI in Bodmin. I was first sent to Durham for my 9 weeks training then I was posted to Colchester.
From there I went to Farnborough as a holding base before being posted to Salisbury as a driver to Brigadier Greenacre, who was second-in-command to General Montgomery.
My job was to take him around looking for campsites for the Territorial Army.
