adinetuse Posted 14 April , 2006 Share Posted 14 April , 2006 At (or toward?) the end of the war my grandfather John Ward Pte. 30071 Sherwood Foresters was moved (possibly at the disbanding of the 1st garrison battalion) to become 08158 Pte. 20th Hants. I should be grateful for any general information about this Hampshires battalion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HERITAGE PLUS Posted 14 April , 2006 Share Posted 14 April , 2006 I believe that a 20th. Battalion existed for a short time in 1919. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
