HQ and Defence Platoon 1st Parachute Bde

Folks,

Although not WW2, would anyone know the war diary numbers of the HQ and Defence platoon 1 Para Bde for Palestine 1946/7?

Regards

Steve

 

I am also looking for nominal rolls of the Platoon.

I've heard a booklet is coming out on the 1st PB HQ......It may have a nominal roll and probably will not buy it.....

 

Thanks Am, do you think it will cover the Palestine years, 1946 /7?

WO 275 covers 6 Airborne Division in Palestine -

I have had a quick look through my 'wants of documents to be copied' and cannot find 1 Para Bde for 1946 ................ yet!!

TNA has WO 169/22991 1 Para Bde HQ March to June 1946

Hope the above helps in some small way!

Andy

 

Thanks Andy,

Is WO 169/22991 available to buy from the TNA as a download?

Regards

I don't think so and I am not sure when I am likely to be there again otherwise I would offer to copy it for you.

Maybe Andy (Drew5233) can assist?

I've looked for the WD's specifically for the Defence Platoons for 1944 but (so far) without success.
