Just wondering what you mean by safer ground? Following your advice I have just submitted an online request for my Grandfather's service record. I will also post an application form to request a medal entitlement from the MOD in Gloucestershire this week.That's interesting you've heard of my Grandfather. I'm assuming you've heard about him from your Dad? This is something my Dad missed out on. There's very little he knows, which is why I'm trying to find out what ever I can.The book I've uploaded in this thread was a case of being in the right place at the right time. My Dad struck up a conversation with a stranger who conincidentally knew my Grandfather and had a copy of the book. He gave my Dad details of the book and I found it on Amazon. Had it not been for the random conversation about 5 years ago my Dad wouldn't have been aware that the book existed.I will upload some more photos today.Kind regards</blockquote>
