    :) Great Stuff
    Do'nt forget the Medium Regt bit.
    The 10th Med went under command 121 Tac HQ in early July 44 as they were both 5AGRA Regts in Normandy.

    Not looked into the med. bit too much as yet, I am researching dads service, and dad was with 121 from its formation as a TA regt. in april 39 but was transferred to RAOC in 41.

    Also got the war diary from 1939-dec41, which I will get round to transcribing and posting on here once I've finished with 4 field regt. diary.

    Hi just reading this as trying to research my granddad's war story. Have got his service records although not to hand right now. As I recall I think he went to North Africa worth 121 as a field regiment and then to Normandy when it re rolled to a med reg.
    My friend is doing most of the research and is trying to source some info from the 1939-1945 history which I hope you still have, I think he is trying to ascertain what battery he was in to track his movements through Normandy and beyond.
    Don't have much info other than Gnr John Evans can get service number if needed? He appears to have been wounded GSW think in Holland??

    Any help would be amazing??
    Thanks
