My grandfather was also in Italy in 1945/46 and in the royal army service corps.His name was John Higgins and he was based at a royal palace? He died in a climbing accident in May 1946,as one of the young ones he was not transported home after VE day,despite the fact that he was a new Father .I would really like to hear from anyone who can remember anything about this tragedy.There are photos of him with his pals who I think were with him when he fell.He never saw his new baby and his death at 21 has been a great sadness for us all..He is buried in Caeserta Cemetry.
Thank you .
