Cpl 'Butch' Davies, 1st. Welch.

Welch Regiment Search A search request has been received for a Cpl 'Butch' Davies, who served in Korea with the 1st. Welch. He was a regular soldier. John Prescott, the searcher, informs me that Butch was from North Wales. He had dark hair and eyes, that he looked more Italian than British, he was of average height (aprox. 5' 8"). From the brief details John was able to provide, it would appear Butch served in Korea with Battalion HQ. After Korea, while the Regiment was stationed in Hong Kong, 'Butch' got married. The marriage produced one child in 1959, he was named Christopher. After 40+ years John cannot recall Butch's his wife's name. From Hong Kong in 1956 Butch was posted to Luneburg Germany where his duties were that of Rations Cpl on the QM Staff. It was there that John first met him, he also taking up duties on the QM Staff. In 1957/58 the two of them were together in Cyprus. Their paths parted when John was posted to Maindy Barracks Cardiff in early 1959 Butch was still serving on the QMs when John was posted to Maindy in early 1959.
