Another question for those more knowledgeable: amongst my late fathers' possessions is a postcard as follows: Front: Panoramique vue o'Hyeres. Reverse: L/Cpl. Hart, Hubert Raymond - 5783763 - R. Sigs BD and School - MEF 1945 Could anyone identify (a) the location of Hyeres; (b) R Sigs BD and School The other information ref my father is all confirmed (in triplicate!) Thanks to all Sid (email: shart243@hotmail.co.uk)
Hi Quite a few possibilities as far as unit war diaries go: WO 169/20391 B.D. and School 1945 Jan.- Dec. WO 169/21872 School of Signals 1945 Jan.- Dec. WO 169/22561 Miscellaneous: R. Signals and I.S.C. B.D. and School 1945 Jan.- Apr., June - Dec. All 3 are within the MEF being designated WO 169 files. The top one of the three looks the most likely but the National Archives isn't always 100% accurate when naming files.
