An End of War by Ken Tout
After D-Day in 1944 many British troops believed the war would be over by Christmas. The German Army in Normandy had been destroyed, but by Christmas the Allies were still fighting through Holland, whilst the Germans had reorganised and were fighting back.
KEN TOUT landed on the D-Day beaches as a Sherman tank gunner and later, after heavy casualties, commanded a captain’s tank whilst only a lance-corporal. After the war he worked for many years with international charities and, apart from his many war books, is known for early research and books on ageing in developing countries. In 1994 he was awarded the OBE for his work with the elderly and also received a United Nations citation. He is Vice-President of his regimental association and has lectured to junior soldiers and their trainers during WW2 battlefield tours. His other books include The Bloody Battle for Tilly, A Fine Night for Tanks and In the Shadow of Arnhem.
