rjsnape Posted 8 July , 2016 Share Posted 8 July , 2016 The first entry on the burial return is my Gt Uncle - NO 57106 PTE C.M Wood A.COY V.D. LANC. FUS. Can anyone tell me what V.D. or maybe Y.D means? Thanks. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughton Posted 9 July , 2016 Share Posted 9 July , 2016 Interesting question as I have not seen that before. It also appears on the GRRF: That page caught my interest in your post as there was a Canadian listed- but it turned out he was from New Zealand. Someone who was doing this paperwork at least knew there was a "1st Ontario Regiment". Took me a while to find it was an error. Thanks for the post.

rjsnape Posted 9 July , 2016 Author Share Posted 9 July , 2016 Thanks for taking a look, and that GRRF confirms it's V.D and not Y.D so I appreciate you posting that, thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
