Army Records - COMPLETED
« on: Sunday 12 February 12 14:08 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone

I have just received my grandfather's army records from the MOD.  In them there is a list of postings with dates to and from.  There is one posting to NWE which I do not understand.  Can anyone tell me where this might be??  Thanks.

Thanks Ady.  I know my grandfather was posted somewhere in Europe for a while but not exactly where.  This is the only post that looked like it could be Europe.

Thanks again
