Leonard’s younger brother Jack (right), who served in REME and went ashore on D-Day with HQ
4 Commando Brigade Royal Marines on Juno beach. Jack also served with the Indian Engineers
and returned to UK in 1946 via the notorious Deolali transit camp, from where came the terms
‘going doolally’ and ‘doolally tap’ – meaning going crazy and crazy fever.
Jack practised as a consultant civil engineer after WW2 and died in 1991 aged 72.
