World War Two / War diaries look up request please 😊
« on: Wednesday 27 September 23 09:56 BST (UK)  »
Hello
I am looking into my Great Uncles history and wondered if anyone has the war diaries for No18 Motor Ambulance Convoy Middle East Forces sometime around the date 16th of July 1943?
I have a letter that Uncle Sam wrote on that date so thought it might be a good date to start with.
I know that he was a driver and his service number was T/236763
If anyone can help I would be very grateful
Thank you

Hi Andy

My grandad is only a cadet in the picture but I was thinking if someone knew the name of the officer in charge I might be able to research which training units he was responsible for and that might help me to work out which ITW my grandad was in because there were quite a few that ran from Bridlington between 1943 and 1944 😊

Definitely the same place but the wrong year and unfortunately he only mentions his time in Bridlington briefly but thank you so much for your reply 😊

Armed Forces / Help to identify raf initial training wing please

Hi
I'm trying to figure out which initial training wing my grandad was in, I know it was after may 1943 and from the photo I think he did his air crew training in Bridlington but I thought if someone could identify the captain on the front row centre it might help me to work out which training wing my grandad was in and maybe this will give me more clues regarding his service.
I am waiting for his service records but just thought Iwoukd see if Ican find anything out while I wait impatiently lol   
Any help would be amazing please 😊

Would you say find my past is the best one to join for searching England and Wales? My family come from Yorkshire so I would like to get a subscription that would be best for these places

Just one more quick question please 😊 where does the Travis link come in? Are they family members of Elizabeth’s children?
My friend and I both live in Australia now so finding it a little hard to do local research
