J A Philipson’s photograph of 4440351 Sgt Hallett suggests that he must have served with the 16th Battalion DLI. His Army Number also indicates that he was in the Army well before 1939. Note the distinctive ‘Guards-style DLI shoulder flash and the Africa Star Medal ribbon. The back of the photograph is reproduced below. I read the surname as Hallett--but am open to corrections: ‘No 4440351 Sgt Hallett DLI, attached 202 Transit Camp, CMF.’ CMF stands for Central Mediterranean Forces. |
