Thank you for giving the old memory banks a little prod!

Kev,
It proved very informative for my friend, his father served in Iceland, East Africa and then up to Libya. It made sense of all the photos and letters he had and he managed to put a map together tracing his fathers war from Nairobi, Italian Somaliland, British Somaliland, Eritrea and and to Libya through Egypt.
A lovely old Tome, glad it dusted off the cobwebs.........
