Pvt Stanley Colin Margrave

After speaking to family members, we believe Stanley (who was always known as Colin) Margrave was wounded on the Queen White sector of Sword Beach on D-Day. He was transported back to Botleys Park War Hospital in Chertsey. Then, he was transferred to Nottingham General Hospital, and finally to Leicester hospital where he underwent an operation - but sadly died a week later.
