This is really pinning it down to a specific period in time.

You can also see from this post my point about 'Eye for detail'

Hi Chris

Thank you for taking the time to post this information.

I think I only have a few more pieces to complete this rather fine jigsaw puzzle!

As there is no service record for William, does anyone a regimental diary on the off chance he may be recorded as wounded at some stage?

Martin

Martin,

It would be VERY unusual for the wounding of a serjeant to be mentioned in the War Diary of one of the RB or KRRC Regular battalions.

Cheers,

Mark

Pals,

I've added some important caveats from Andy :ph34r: and I about Service Numbers for KRRC and RB Regulars to my earlier post.

See here: Earlier Post above

No effect on our 1909 Enlistment for 3366 Sjt Broughton, but a warning of pitfalls to other Pals researching RB & KRRC Regulars!

Cheers,

Mark

I guess you are right there, I'm just getting carried away with the excitement of all this information.

Wm. Broughton 3366 was an RB regular , clasp & rose issued 5/5/1922 .

Chris

Chris,

And adding to Martin's jigsaw, from Andy :ph34r: checking the Roll, the other medals were despatched on 11 Aug 1919.

Cheers,

Mark
