He served as a V.I.P driver during the Second World War with the R.A.S.C, primarily as the driver to General Ismay, who was then Sir Winston's chief of staff and secretary. After joining the Rootes group after the war, he worked as Churchill's full-time driver (except for three years when he was Prime Minister and used a government car).
