Hi All, I am new to this and trying to find my way around. I am looking for information on a Ronald John Thomas who was in the 61st signals regiment 1940-45 I have looked in the Forces service records without success. anyone have any photos of this regiment/company? He died in 2002 in Birmingham age 81.
Do you have a copy of his service records? If you are 100% certain of his unit(s) you could view the units war diaries at the National Archives to learn more about his war.
Hi Drew, I don't have his service number and am trying to get more info from relatives. The war diaries seem a good idea but I don't know which dates to look for apart from 1939-45! Regards Jim
In that case I would apply for a copy of his service records first to confirm his units. You don't need his service number to apply for a copy of his records if you know his date of birth.
