One of Delmanor Elgin Mills' very own residents, Mr. Jack Wellsbury, was recognized for his service.
Mr. Wellsbury served in the Queen's Own Rifle Regiment during WW2. This regiment was the leading wave in the D Day Invasion on June 6, 1944. During the war, 393 Queen's Own were killed in battle, and a further 873 were wounded.
