My Father was in the Construction Corps 1943 - 1945 and I have his service and release papers. Released in Tramore. I have been searching or photos of his unit for a while now - but there is alot of general history online ...be nice to get something specific.
I did post in a Tramore FaceBook page the following a while ago :
"Hi - following up from a 2016 post from Keith Dickinson re "My Mum often spoke of the Army Engineers being sent to Tramore to drain what is now Down Around and where the Boating lake is, etc.."
A long shot - would there be any photo's of the Construction Corps work here - I have seen one dtd 1940 (too early).
My father was in the Corps ('No 5 Works Company.' possibly units) and it was suggested I ask. He joined up at 16, said he was 17, Discharged after his 2 years (12 Feb 1943 - 11 Feb 1945) at Tramore, Waterford. I received his Irish Army records - and already had his discharge papers."
