In this remarkable image, we see Sergeant Roy Roberts, hailing from 62 Cardiff Road in Taffs Well, proudly standing alongside Sergeant Tom Harvard of 21 Thomas Street. Both men were not only dedicated soldiers serving in the Welsh Guards but also talented rugby players before the war. Sergeant Roy Roberts, a formidable Second Row forward for Cardiff rugby team, stands tall with an air of determination etched on his face. His rugged appearance speaks volumes about his unwavering commitment to both his country and sport. Beside him stands Sergeant Tom Harvard, who showcased his skills as a player for Swinton Rugby Club prior to joining the military.
