My grandfather was a doctor in WW2

Hello!

This is my very first thread! I hope I do ok!

My grandfather Maurice Frank Gallop, a doctor for RAMC - been in India ; Columbo, Bombay, Delhi, Jaspoi & Hyderabad.

He was also worked with Red Cross - where he met my grandmother!

He came from Tunbridge, Kent and went to Guy's before he signed up.

I was wondering if there is anything about him on records. Or any of you members may know him through their relatives' stories?
