With a nice hyphenated name this guy should be easy to research from no doubt the WW2 or even the WWI era.
The DUKE OF WELLINGTON'S REGIMENT, raised in 1702 as "Huntingdon's Regiment" after the name of the Colonel, became the 33rd Regiment of Foot in 1755 and drew from the West Riding of Yorkshire. It served just about everywhere, including the American War of Independence, the Battle of Waterloo and extensively in India. In 1853 one year after the death of the great Duke of Wellington Queen Victoria dictated that the 33rd Regt of Foot should be henceforth known as The Duke of Wellington Regiment in honor of one of England's greatest heroes.
