WW2

Healey took part in the landings at Anzio in World War II. I have his book so I can give a few details.

Can anyone provide a London Gazette date for the award of a Military Cross? I can find no evidence for this. Debretts does not list an MC for him. His MBE was awarded for WWII. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.44.115.94 (talk) 10:23, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
