(Walter) George Plater (Sgt)

My father Walter,who preferred to be called George, was in the Irish Guards during the Second World War, and after. Sadly he died a few years ago.  

Hi Ivor,

You ask for more details about my father so we got a book about the Irish Guards printed in 1945 we think, and called "The Second Troop" which mentions my father on Page 37.  Click on the photo to see an enlarged picture and read the excerpt from the book below.

He was made up to Sgt. later on about 1946/47

Anyone remember George ?
