Sandie Hayes Posted 7 October , 2011 Share Posted 7 October , 2011 Hello Pete, Do you know if his service records still exist? His attestation document will have asked ' Have you ever served in any branch of His Majesty's Forces, naval or military, if so which?' If you are lucky enough to find his service records you'll probably find the answers to your other questions too. Good luck, Sandie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not without a name Pete, we're good on here but we're not clairvoyant. Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
