A final dose of fun and adventure with war hero Wilf Shaw. "We're done for" said Wilf's mate as a cloud of desert dust appeared on the horizon, signifying the approach of a very large force of enemy troops. "One day, on board ship, they decided to run a Battalion boxing tournament and Sgt O'Grady asked the assembled company for volunteers - not a single hand was raised - until Jeff nudged me and said, 'I'll have a go Shaw if you will'.

41 A last coffee with Wilf Shaw,  WW2 history

28 Wilf Shaw RIP Tribute It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of WWII veteran Wilf Shaw in hospital on 21 March 2018. His family advise that he passed away very peacefully in the early hours in hospital. He had enjoyed exceptional health for his age until a few weeks ago, when the breathing difficulties he had had trouble with during the past eighteen months worsened quite dramatically. Special episode about WW2 veteran Wilf Shaw RIP. Listener tributes plus the best and funniest parts of his interviews. "You were always a rebel Wilf and it was those types of blokes who won this bloody War for us" Fred Zilken.   RIP Private Shaw W, 4753850 Called up on 13 June 1940, 6th Battalion, Green Howards Born 6 Feb 1920, Died 21 March 2018, Aged 98   Links - Not supported by all podcast players: Facebook page  Link to feedback/reviews at Apple Podcasts - Thank you Full show notes and photos at www.FightingThroughPodcast.co.uk Please note that photos below may or may not display depending on which listening platform you’re using   Below: Wilf in later years  Best podcast for World War 2 history and the second world war
