Do Not apply for Service Records other than through the MOD at Manning and Records in Glasgow. There are a few websites claiming, suggesting, hinting etc that they have them or can get them quicker for money....Lies, lies and dam lies.

Only apply through the Government website and pay no more than £30.

Good luck
Andy
