A Scots family have travelled to Guernsey to remember their hero grandad’s war efforts after their trip was originally postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Sergeant-Major Robert Shaw, from Springburn, Glasgow, was the first British soldier to land on Guernsey soil after the liberation of the island from the German occupation.
Shaw arrived on the island as part of the Task Force 135 which was the British Military Contingent that liberated Guernsey during operation Nestegg at the end of the second world war on May 9, 1945.
