jimmyjames Posted 17 November , 2007 Share Posted 17 November , 2007 Peter In what month and year was he commissioned? From this info, the correct edition of the Army List (it was published on a monthly basis) can be checked. Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmyjames Posted 17 November , 2007 Share Posted 17 November , 2007 Peter I can't help with 1916 Army Lists, but I notice from his MIC, http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/documen...;resultcount=34 that he was commissioned into the Royal Garrison Artillery from 29405, Pnr, Royal Engineers. The date of his commissioning may well be recorded on it. At the National Archives there is a War Office file on a Lieut H J Arnold which can be found at WO374/2310 (http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue/displaycataloguedetails.asp?CATID=886235&CATLN=6&Highlight=%2CARNOLD&accessmethod=0 ). To view this file means a trip to Kew. Good luck with your research. Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
