GM-38 - From War Torn France to Porton Down by Gerald Morris

A talented young German Jew became known as GM-38 when she gave up not only her name but her one true love and her only child to join the French Resistance.
Born in 1938, the son of a miner, Gerald (Gerry) Morris grew up in Wales. Money was short and life could be tough, but he thrived in the freedom of the beautiful Brecon countryside and nurtured his love of Rugby. Gerry started his National Service at the age of eighteen and was fortunate enough to pursue the game, representing both The Royal Artillery and Kent before being posted to Salisbury. After discharge Gerry married, became a father of two but still managed to study, graduating in Physical Science from Exeter South Bank and later gaining his masters at The Cambridge Institute. After entering the teaching profession, Gerry gained a lot of fulfilment from the successes of his young pupils, many of whom he is able to stay in contact with, thanks to modern technology. Rugby was not to be forgotten and Gerry coached under nineteens for many years. This led him to becoming the chair of the London Division and the England Panel Member for this age group. Sadly, his teaching career was cut short due to ill health but he developed a strong interest in collecting antiques.
