So is Ancestry better than FindMyPast?
Do some people use both?
Is there a case for using both?

Hi,
I have a great Uncle who was in the Army but later turned up in the Navy using another Uncles first name. Anyway I have recently found a service record for his army portion and it looks like he was thrown out but I cant decipher the writing, see attached. Any suggestions appreciated.

I like ancestry but I don't like the way they exploit peeps like that.  FindMyPast are kind enough to post a link to gov site on there registry pages, pity the rest of their site is so clunky
