peterhodgkinson Posted 7 April , 2010 Share Posted 7 April , 2010 The army list has WRH Dann commanding a Service Battalion of the Cheshires 20/12/15-20/4/16. Does anyone know which one? Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterhodgkinson Posted 8 April , 2010 Author Share Posted 8 April , 2010 Well, although I'd looked at all the Gazette entries, on a second look the clue was there - it was the 13th Btn. Thanks for prodding me Verrico. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
