Post by: Trufit on Thursday 25 October 12 20:41 BST (UK)

Hello I am looking for some information on my fathers service records as he recently died and unfortunatly other than information he gave me i have nothing

His RAF number was 4122297 and he was a bomb armourer at bomber command at binbrook.

Please any info would be much appreciated

hello

you could try www.mod.uk where there is information and forms available to obtain his records.  There is a fee of £30 per record and you must provide a death certificate.  There is a 'next of kin' form available to fill in on the website in PDF format.  If you are not next of kin there is a general enquirer form.  The MOD are still custodians of WW2 service records although some sites will have 1939-1945 roll of honours - but your father survived the war and therefore this may be the only route available for the time being (until passed on to National Archives)

Hope this helps
