Hi Martin99.  I have a history of the regiment compiled from contributions of past members as well as a photograph of C squadron taken at Warlingham prior to deployment to North Africa.  Would be happy to send copies but would need a mailing address.

Would also be interested in this.

Are there any other sources of information on regiments?

Hi Andy,

Very interested in WO 169/4520. My grandfather was in 42RTR and killed in May 42. My 7 year old has been doing a school project on wars and really wants to know more about his great granddad. How can I get a copy from you?

Thanks

Paul
