Sergeant Sidney Joseph Hartill (left) with T. Lyall. Hartill served with the 225th Parachute Field Ambulance from Normandy to Palestine, having been attached to them from the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers. In 2015, he was notified that he, along with other surviving veterans of Normandy, was to be awarded the Legion d'Honneur. Unfortunately he passed away before he could receive it.
