Hi all

Just letting you know that the uncertified Victorian bdm certificates online have gone up. I purchased some in August 2013 and they cost $20.00 each.

Turned out they were well worth the money as they solved a lot of questions.

Obviously my lack of skills...I'll be blowed if his file appears.  Anyway a long way around when it is so easy to search for WW2 service files on
http://www.ww2roll.gov.au/

Are you sure you weren't directed to the above url on the AWM website?

Cheers :)
