Add my storyBiography
Cecil Alexander Greig was the best friend of my Father, Colin Ivan Williams. They joined the Army together and served side-by-side between 1942-1945 in the 2/27th Battalion in the Middle East, Papua New Guinea and Borneo.
Cec and Col were inseparable and when the War was over Cec married Evelyn and Col married Sylvia. They rode their motorbikes everywhere together, especially to Victor Harbor. - Julie Adams
