Hi Sharon and others, I think I must have missed out on "recovering army records". I have great-grandfather, grandfather and uncle, all of whom were army men and I would dearly love to peruse their army records. I know absolutely nothing about them at present. Would whoever brought up this subject please revert and advise where I should look? Unfortunately, I have no army numbers.
