On 31 Jan we said farewell to Captain Raymond Savage.

A veteran of the #Leicestershire Regiment, he fought in Norway, Malaya, and Singapore before building the Thai-Burma railway.

Raymond Savage joined The Artists' Rifles in 1937 and was commissioned into The Leicestershire Regiment in 1939.

He commanded a platoon in Norway in April 1940. The British defence of Norway did not go well. “There was a rather one-sided fight,” said Raymond.
