Saddler with RFA?

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I am researching a step relatives Grandfather. Saddler/Corporal John Browning 75586 RFA.

On his MIC (which i cannot reduce enough in size to upload) it states his theatre as France on 20/09/1915.

However, there is a strong recollection of him traveling to Salonika at some point during the war?

Is there any way of tracking him?

Thanks for your attention.

Bamboo.

This is a good example of where the theatre on the MIC was just that of entry and shows how mobile troops could be, not being tied to one front for the duration.
