Please could any one tell if a nominal roll exists for the 13/18th in France in 1940? Many thanks in advance
There isn't one in the war diary but there is a few lists of all the Officers in the regiment recorded in the Officer Field Returns.
There may be a nominal roll in WO361/105 which deals with casualties and missing personnel from the Royal Armoured Corps in 1940 - I looked at it a few weeks back and was looking for 10th Hussars, so I'm sorry I can't remember which units gave details - 3rd RTR for instance was very detailed I think but this depended on individual units and officers responses.

Brian - Noted you were looking for 10th Hussars...can I help ? Have been looking at both 10H and 11H ever since I joined the Royal Hussars back in 1979...I was also in those files several weeks ago !
