Chris_Baker Posted 13 June , 2008 Share Posted 13 June , 2008 Does any pal have ready access to the war diary or other material on 119th Brigade RFA, 38th (Welsh) Division? I'd like to round off an article I am writing on one of its officers. I'm curious to know if he is mentioned anywhere. I'll be in a position to examine the war diary at Kew but not until mid next week and I have a deadline approaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rflory Posted 13 June , 2008 Share Posted 13 June , 2008 Chris: If you give me your officer's name I will check my RA officers' database to see if I have anything on him. Regards, Dick Flory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard_Lewis Posted 14 June , 2008 Share Posted 14 June , 2008 The RFA is not my speciality. If he was mentioned in the Weslh Regiment history - as an aside maybe - I could have a look for that. But need the name, of course. Bernard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baorbrat Posted 14 June , 2008 Share Posted 14 June , 2008 Bernard. Could you see if a George Anderson is mentioned? Thank you Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard_Lewis Posted 14 June , 2008 Share Posted 14 June , 2008 Peter - I'll look in the next few days (going out shortly and tied up tomorrow too). Which unit did he service with? I assume he was an officer? Are there any specific dates that might mention him (getting wounded/killed etc)? It's a big book but happy to look!

baorbrat Posted 14 June , 2008 Share Posted 14 June , 2008 I think if he was mentioned it would be sometime arriving after April 1918. No idea of the Unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard_Lewis Posted 25 June , 2008 Share Posted 25 June , 2008 Sorry Peter - had a scan through from April 1918 on but no mention that I can see. Its not an indexed book but the artillery is usually referred to as 'the artillery' with no names. Couldn't see him. Bernard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
