Welcome to the forum the only place you will find them is the official route link here Get a copy of military service records give it a good read it is very simple to apply Please do not sign up and pay for site on the internet they will not have his service records Date of birth and death cert required plus £30 a long wait at the moment regards Clive
Hi Clive many thanks yes all new to me you are the second member to recommended that route so i will take a look, already made the mistake of signing up to an internet site !!
yes i know Martin easily done with all their promises once you get them come back here and forum member will assist you further regards Clive
Hi Martin Assume you are after his military information - if thats the case then the ONLY place to start is by obtaining his service record which is held by the MOD and the forms you need are here - Request records of deceased service personnel The only extra you will need is a copy of his death certificate, are you sure you have the correct DoB ?
