I hoping you can see the photo I've tried to attach to this message. Sorry it is very faint, but it's all we have.
I'm trying to trace information about my great uncle who served in the 2nd World War. My dad thinks he was in the air force and was a prisoner of war. I know that the info. on Find My Past isn't complete, but we've looked for him in the POW records there and the only people whose names match were in the army. The regiments they served in are nearly all local to us, so if he was in the army, not the air force, then it would be logical that he would be in those regiments. Although, saying that, the surname is indigenous to this area and very, very common.
I'm quite confident that there will be people on this forum who can identify an armed force, and maybe even a regiment, just by the uniform. So I'm crossing my fingers in hope that some of you can help me.
Thank you,
Katrina
