    Hello all, i've been trying to translate these records to english for the family to understand where and what my grandads life was like during the 2nd WW. I understand some of it, but there isnt many web sites that give you definitive answers, we would also like to know if he was entitaled to any medals. Any help would be very appreciated, I hope these documents will be of use to anyone and I am happy for you to use them for your own benefits aswell.

    Hello Toni

    Hello Lesley, sorry about the angle of view but my scanner will only work one way, when you open them go to view and rotate them clockwise.
    Hope this helps.
