From Ken Wharton
Gunner Keith Bates was only 20 when he died on 4 November, 1974, following an earlier tragic accident in Belfast’s city centre. He was from Shipley, in West Yorkshire and, although his name appears on the Wall at the AFM in Staffordshire, he does not appear in the ‘official’ roll of honour. I am pleased to rectify that oversight in this book’s ROH.
