OPERATION MARKET GARDEN - THE BATTLE FOR ARNHEM

[GeeRam]

The father of one of my friends from junior school days (early 70's) was a WW2 Para. My friend was a late and surprise addition to the family, his two brothers were 10+ years older, and his Dad had a very strong west country accent, even having spent all his time post WW2 living in West London. I remember my Dad telling me he rescued or carried his wounded officer to a dressing station or safety of some kind. Every few years after the war this officer would take him and his wife for an expensive dinner as a way of continued thanks.
He worked for the council for decades, driving the tractors around the council parks and grounds cutting the grass, and I last saw him sometime in the early 90's. He'll be dead now of course.
I've always assumed he fought at Arnhem (could have been Varsity or indeed Normandy with 6th AB), and would love to know if his name appears on the Arnhem list. I can't now recall if Dad ever mentioned it was Arnhem or elsewhere.
His name was Nelson Bone, which is quite distinctive.
