Hi All A friends father was a Gunner in WW2. He was with the Royal Artillery and from 1940 was stationed in the south of England on Anti Aircraft guns. Any ideas what he would have been used for ( apart from shooting at planes ) what was life like for them? Cheers Ant
Hello Ant Was he in Light Anti Aircraft or Heavy Anti Aircraft my Father was in 116th L.A.A. and then 92nd L.A.A. spent most of his time training learning to drive various wheeled and tracked vehicles ,fix engines .use equipment etc. Link below from a forum member re 92nd LAA http://ww2talk.com/forums/topic/17655-true-loyals-7th-battalion-the-loyal-regiment-92nd-loyals-laa-rgt-ra-1940-1946/ also have a look at the RA links below http://ww2talk.com/forums/forum/76-royal-artillery/ He should also send off for his service records this would give more information regards Clive
