    All,

    Whilst trying to find some details of the FGCM of my Grandad - to no avail - I came across the website of the Corps of Military Police (Results). Whilst I didn't find anything about my Grandad's misdemeanours, I did discover a rellie was a 'Redcap'! The address is the same as my Grandad's family; so, I think that it's either his brother (born in 1895) or his nephew (brother James' son; born in 1918).

    Based on the detail below, I'm thinking that James was with the General Service Corps during the War and only transferred to CMP in 1947 - based on the award of Defence and War Medals. Also, the lack of any WW2 'Stars' makes me think that it might have been the elder James.

    Any thoughts?

    For some reason - probably my old MacBook! - the details for Cpl James Roxburgh didn’t upload! IMG_0843.jpeg
