Hi Mark:
Thanks for deciphering dad's war records and for all the other info.
Do you think there is any way of finding out exactly where in East Sussex he was billeted?
Also the place he rehabilitated in Scotland? I know it was near Kilmarnock and that he visited Robbie Burns Cottage in Alloway. He was billeted on a farm and he said the people were really wonderful.
The reason I want to know as much as possible is I am working on my family tree and I want to write a biography of my dad and of course the war years played a significant part of his life.
Do you think it would be advantageous to borrow the regimental diaries?
Anyhow, once again many thanks!
Cheers...Dianne
