NIGEL BARGE ROAD RACE

The race commemorates Nigel Barge who was killed in action at the age of 23 in Dunkirk during World War II. Nigel was an outstanding officer who trained as a Royal Engineer.

He came top of his class at Woolwich and had helped prepare and map defences around Dunkirk. He assisted in the repairing of small craft to ensure the debarkation of his comrades. Nigel was a licensed pilot and a keen athlete who ran for Maryhill Harriers, of which his father, Colonel Kenneth Barge, was a committee member.
