Not sure if I should post this here, or at the Armed Forces section. I will post it here because it is of local interest.

I came across this site while searching for Connon ancestors in Turriff.

Came in very hany for me. According to the site, my great grandfather (Robert Cassie Connon was discharged from the army deemed 'Medically Unfit'.
There are some holes in the database, but still. It's free.
Hope it can be of use to fellow Rootschatters.

Coincidentally, I just found the link this morning and saw my grandfather mentioned as injured in the German/Spring Offensive. It's such a strange sensation to dip into moments in history, very sobering.
