There are very few post 1920 military records available online. You would have to apply to the MoD for a copy of his army records if you are interested in his military career (£30 and a long wait).

There are 45 trees on Ancestry for Harold Charles Luckhurst born Durham 1907, mmn Lugo.

The GRO does not have a middle name for him in 1907 but there is a death in 1984, Surrey for a Harold Charles Luckhurst, born 3rd Jan 1907.
