The Rhine crossing followed, with the Guards Armoured leading XXX Corps towards Bremen and Hamburg. Guardsman Edward Charlton, Irish Guards, severely wounded, broke up a counterattack and earned the last VC of the European war.The Story of The Guards Armoured Division is a classic account of the Divisions superb fighting record.
Autoren-Porträt von The Earl of Rosse, E. R. Hill
It was fortunate that the outstanding achievements of the Guards Armoured Division were recorded in the early postwar years by Captain the Earl of Rosse and Colonel ER Hill DSO. Having fought with the Division, both were well qualified to do so. Perhaps it is no coincidence that it was described not as a 'history' but as 'The Story' - it certainly reads refreshingly well and pulls no punches.
