    I am off to the IWM in London in a couple of months for the day, does anybody know of any specific place/way/location to find information regarding the Beds & herts in France from July 1939 to Dunkirk while I am there?

    I'm not sure that the IWM is the place to research individual units. The war diaries in The National Archive are really where you need to start.

    I have a copy of the war diary from Kew along with a personal account written by the CO which contains some excellent maps like this

    Click the red link below or send me a PM if you'd like to obtain a copy, assuming you don't have a copy already. The map above comes from the same file Mr Jinks mentioned at the IWM although mine was copied at Kew.

    Cheers
