9th Field Ambulance
 

My dad was in the 9th Field Ambulance Medical Corp (along with 4 other regiments during WW2) but I can't seem to find any information pertaining to this regiment anywhere.

I know he was in England, Belgium, Italy, Germany and France but like so many other veterans, he NEVER talked about the war.

I want so much to collect as much information as I can before I move on to join him (where ever he is) so I can pass it on to my children so they know exactly what he sacrificed for their freedom.

Can someone point me in the right direction as to where I can find out something, anything, about it?


Thanks

Make it a coffee and you have a deal :cool:

Deal !

I'll have tea though (it's the English blood running through my veins - I cna't help it!!)

Ok, so I'm going through this info you gave me Mark for 9th field ambulance - but, like I said, I'm a dunce when it comes to military so please bear with me.

I have figured out everything other than "G.O. 401/1945" what's that mean

HELP !! :confused:

G.O. 401/1945 = Canadian Army General Order Number 401 of 1945.

Cheers :)

What a wealth of information you are - thanks (once again) :)
