My father
« on: Sunday 10 February 08 10:48 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to trace my dads service during WW2
He was in the army medical corps and served mainly at an army hospital in Mauritius off the African coast.

Charles Frederick Sefton

He was taken in as a Z reservist due to bad legs.

If you want to obtain his service records see this for information on how to go about it.  It will cost you £30.00 and the amount of information is variable.
