Sergeant Keith D. Banwell

Tex Banwell joined the British Army and served with the Coldstream Guards with whom he saw action against the Pathans and Kashmiries,


BLA BLA BLA..........



Returning home, Banwell continued to serve in the army until during the 1970's, and was likely to have been amongst Britain's most senior parachutists. At the 25th anniversary of Arnhem in 1969, Banwell stood alongside present day paratroopers in a Dakota and jumped once more over Ginkel Heath, formerly DZ-Y. It was his 650th jump, and far from his last because he felt the experience of parachuting kept him "mentally alert". He donated his battle dress jacket to the Airborne Museum Hartenstein, where it is presently on display.

Did you read that Keith, BANWELL CONTINUED TO SERVE IN THE ARMY UNTIL DURING THE 1970'S.

Has this guy got it wrong ???
I can supply a link if you want to put him right ?

See he did well for himself after a lifetime in a profession only got to rank of Sergeant ! Christ my fathers two brothers who were in the Air force became senior officers in no time, not that their much of an example. In 1969 Banwell WHILE STILL A SERVING SOLDIER was awarded the B.E.M.

Dear dear Keith, how the army like yourself never seem to get the story right !


Do I consider myself a better man ? Of course I do. If you want to meet real hero's, you should be in my living room most nights !
