Two servicemen from Wales, return home from The Far East
Two servicemen from Wales, return home from The Far East, to be greeted by their family and friends.
The two men are from Treorchy, Rhondda South Wales and both a lieutenant colonels.
Note to editors, the caption is hard to read, but it is possible that one of gentleman is a Mr A Hillman, or A Wellman, from 31 Cardiff Road, Treorchy (although in 2020 only Cardiff Street exists) and the other lived at 163 Dumfries Street. Possibly a Mr Prellove, or Prellue.
Royal Welch Fusiliers and The Welsh Regiment both fought in The Far East in World War Two, so it is possible the men are from one or other of these.
Picture undated, but Mirrorpix will suggest 1st September 1945, after the War in the East ended
