    Hi this is my first post and. I am researching my Grandad, he was in 27 London Electrical Engineers searchlight regiment , that changed over to RA. I know he arrived in Egypt Dec1940 and in April 1940 2 troops of 306 Battery were sent to Tobruk and I believe he was in the harbour area, he remained there until ? He was a driver / mechanic anyone who could add to my knowledge would be greatly appreciated
    Regards

    Thanks for all the above information, my great uncle died on the 17th May 1941 at Tobruk with 51st Reg, Royal Artillery. Any information on the exact location and what they were doing would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for posting that.
    I've been reading up on him after seeing his name on Eastleach war memorial.
    Can you photograph your local war memorial? (UK)
