Frank Rixon | Sergeant Major Frank Rixon BEM A member of the 2nd Battalion Queens Own Royal West Kent Regiment, Frank Rixon went to Malta in April 1940, staying for more than three difficult years. The duties of the battalion were the defence of the island but most of his time was spent on Luqa Airfield building aircraft pens, filling in bomb holes and assisting the RAF in rearming and refueling aircraft and also unloading ships in the harbour. A career soldier, Rixon later spent 18 months in Korea for which service he was awarded the BEM. Now PRO for the GCIA, he writes frequently on the siege. |
