Alistair Kirkman's wife was my late father's secretary at Perkins Diesel in Peterborough. Alistair gave me the maps he used in Normandy in 1975, and after his decease his widow gave me his green beret, badges and some photos. On 20th July he is noted as having been evacuated due to a severe skin rash. Both he and his widow related to me that he had been badly burned due to a mortar attack exploding the petrol tank in the jeep he was driving. He certainly had burns and after I qualified in medicine, by coincidence, I happened to live near the Manchester Skin Hospital where he had been treated.
