Charlie was one of the last remaining members of the elite Chindit regiment, which was involved in jungle warfare in Burma during the Second World War. At age 20, Charlie joined the 7th Battalion of the Leicestershire Regiment and spent months behind enemy lines ambushing supplies and communications. He battled through treacherous terrain and during his time in service sadly lost his best friend, Son.
