In my ward there was a gurka and an Oniskillng Sergeant and a private we call squeek.( As he had throat cancer ). I had my 21st birthday there. May 1958.
I was medically discharged and my War Pension was stopped as they said I was fit to work but I could not do the job I had trained for for three years to do shoe makng because of the dust !
