== Birth and early years ==
Charles Taylor was born in Uxbridge to Edith Taylor, née Hunt, on 30 November 1918, eight months after the death of his father Charles in the Great War. He lived in Uxbridge and attended the Bishopshalt School where he obtained a university scholarship, but did not take it up as his mother, a telephonist, wished him to earn a living. He joined the Air Ministry in a clerical position and meanwhile studied the Russian language at evening classes as well as attending piano classes at the Royal Academy of Music.
he joined the Royal Air Force (RAF) at the outbreak of the Second World War and in 1940 was sent as an English-Russian interpreter by convoy to Murmansk in the Soviet Union and from there to Kineshma on the Volga, where the British airmen taught the Russians to assemble and fly Hurricane planes. On return to Britain, he was chosen to learn Japanese and later posted to Indian with Allied Military Intelligence to translate documents retrieved from Japanese soldiers and other sources. At the end of the war he oversaw the surrender messages by the Japanese HQ at Singapore.
