I am researching a book on the artist Fred Yates. Fred served in the Guards from 1941-46 along with his twin brother, Arthur. Arthur was killed at Arnhem and Fred was involved in the XXX Corps relief, one of a handful of survivors of a river crossing (possibly across the Waal). I wanted to know if anyone remembered Fred or his brother and could help me with any recollections of this significant part of his life. Especially anyone who may have served alongside them.
