David Frost ‘served with the 11th Hussars from 1941 to 1963. He was well known in the Regiment for his ability as an armoured car driver in the early years of the war; his excellence as an instructor which included a spell at the R.A.C. Gunnery School, Lulworth; and for his prowess with horses. He also made his mark with The Royal Gloucestershire Hussars and retired to live in Gloucestershire on leaving the Army in 1963.’ (Recipient’s obituary in the Royal Hussars Journal, 1979 refers).
