andy17191 Posted 22 January , 2010 Share Posted 22 January , 2010 Does anybody have a copy of 42nd Bn Machine Gun Corps war diary. I'm particularly interested in the period between January and November 1918. I beleive that it is in document WO95/2650, but I'm a long way from Kew! Thanks Andy (This is a copy of a post I put on document request last night, just to try another tack!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud, unless i've misunderstood what i've seen on another website then the 42nd MGC wasn't formed until late Feb 1918.. if that's right then might there not be 7 or 8 weeks from a different diary that could contain what you're looking for? Here's the link to that site if you want to check it out: www.1914-1918.net/42div.htm Regards mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy17191 Posted 14 February , 2010 Author Share Posted 14 February , 2010 Hi Mick, and thanks for the reply. The problem is that I don't know which unit he was in before 42nd MGC, so I'm trying to work backwards! I know that he died whilst attached to them, but don't know exactly what he was doing up until then (ie, what diary to search?) Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
