Radlein Obituary | March 5 1944. Killed in action in Italy, Dec., 1943, Timothy Welby Huntington, Lieutenant, Grenadier Guards (Nugee's--Eason's, B, 1937-1941). In many respects he was the typical carefree schoolboy with a greater love of adventure than of learning. Apart from his prowess as a shot he was not particularly conspicuous in school life, but he made a host of friends - and always gave of his best. The first part of his military life was spent at Cowley with the Hampshire Regiment, and he demonstrated his love of Radley by frequent visits when he showed unmistakeable signs of developing into a first class soldier. |
