Bernard was born on 22 May 1920 in Marylebone, London to Jacob, a tailor, and Kate nee Censor and he was the eldest of their five children. Bernard attended St John’s School, Fisher Street, Southampton Row, WC1 and then Hugh Middleton Central School in Clerkenwell. He was a member of the 21st City of Westminster Jewish Scouts which met at Great Portland Street Synagogue. The family lived at 17 Harper Street, Theobalds Road, and in 1937 his father died. Bernard continued to live with his mother and he trained to become a draughtsman. He married Kathleen Wright in early 1941, whom he later divorced, and then enlisted later that year on 11 December. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bernard served during the Sicily Campaign and whilst there he reputedly refused an order to shoot a soldier attempting to surrender. Others also refused and the officer shot the individual himself. Bernard retrieved the man’s binoculars, tent bag and hat, which later came into the possession of his brother (and, eventually, the Imperial War Museum).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bernard was killed in the defence of Arnhem during Operation Market Garden. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
