Cpl. George 'Tich' Froud's remains were found beside Van Lennepweg in July 1997 and was buried with full military honours on 18 September 1998. George Froud joined the army in August 1931 at the tender age of 14. From 1940-43 he served in Palestine and North Africa. On 17 September 1944 he set out with his battalion for Arnhem. Corporal Froud was posted missing on 21 September 1944. He was known to have been wounded and so was presumed to have died the same day. George's wife Vera tragically refused to believe her husband was dead when he went missing. She joined the Naffi (army supplies unit) and travelled to Europe to try and find him. Froud was a WS/Cpl (War Substantive) who joined the Border Regiment as a 'boy bandsman' at the age of 15 years old. The band members were normally operating as stretcher bearer during missions. However, when Froud's remains were excavated, several items were found with him indicating that he was acting as section commander at that time.
