PWG Posted 8 January , 2020 Share Posted 8 January , 2020 Hi, does anyone have some information about Major Douglas Mac Olive. He might have come from Grimsby and he served for the Control Commission of Germany as KRO in Bielefeld from 1945 - 1952. He was very respected for the work he did there.

charlie962 Posted 8 January , 2020 Share Posted 8 January , 2020 (edited) LG 23/3/17 Territorial Force RFA : Cadets to be 2Lt Douglas Mac Olive He has a service record covering the period 29/3/11 when he attested to 5th Lincolnshire Regt no 1208 until discharged (time expired) 10/4/16 as OR Sgt, having served in France with 1/5th from 1/3/15-31/3/16. I think mostly 3rd Echelon, Rouen. MIC quoted above adds quite a bit. He was wounded twice at least- CasList 12/10/17 2Lt RFA, CasList 16/11/18 Lt RFA.
