acreusch Posted 16 August , 2016 Share Posted 16 August , 2016 Hi, I am wanting to find out about Arthur Charles Rensch who was in the 7th Battalion Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire Light Infantry in WWI. I know that he died in 1916 and is on the Doiran memorial, Greece (info from CWGC). Firstly, does anyone already have the war diaries from the National Archives they could share before I get those ? (WO 95/4873) Also, does anyone already have any information about him/what his battalion did or know where I can find some ? Thanks ! from his GGGniece , Rosie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
