Carol Harrison Posted 25 August , 2015 Share Posted 25 August , 2015 HI It was suggested to me that I put in John's name and see if anything came up, so I am. I have his medal Roll card and and some service forms but not his actual service record. One form in particular I don't understand. It is a casualty form and has place & date of casualty but it doesn't say what was wrong if anything. Can I attach it to the list for anyone to look at? Kind regards Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldstreamer Posted 25 August , 2015 Share Posted 25 August , 2015 Carol do you mean Army Service Corps ASC ? (not ACS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IPT Posted 25 August , 2015 Share Posted 25 August , 2015 If he's M2/079222 then both the papers on Findmypast state "gas poisoning" 12th March 1918. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol Harrison Posted 25 August , 2015 Author Share Posted 25 August , 2015 Sorry Coldstreamer, slip of the finger, trying to type too fast. Yes Army service Corps. Hi IPT Yes I found that on fmp but this form mentions Reading 20.03.1918 Millbank SW 20.03.1918 Cannot understand next line only 01.05.1918 to 18.05.1918 Depot ???? Reading 10.05.1918 ???? Sutton Coalfield 27.05.1918 At bottom it says Command posted depot Sutton Coalfield 16.10.18 Would this likely to be all to do with the gas poisoning? Another form says he was treated in Westminster hospital and discharged 20.04.18. I'm sorry if I seem thick, the writing is abysmal and I'm not used to it yet.
