[QUOTE="sammyb, post: 42901, member: 1242"] Hello - I have been trying to interpret the X list from my relatives service record. I have used the information that is on the web to understand the relevance of the Xi, Xii nomenclature but I'm still not fully clear on all the details on the form. The are a lot of codes in there to do with promotions which I don't fully understand but I'm most interested in the date at which he left Middle East Commando/1st Special Service Regiment to join the SAS. It looks like it was September 1942 but there is a previous entry "SAS BDE" that makes me think it was earlier (March 1942). Is there anyone who can provide guidance on this? Thanks, Sam [/QUOTE]
