    Hi All,

    I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction of which forum would be best for my post! I am trying to research and man named Donald John Campbell (Born 1914 Nova Scotia) who I believe served in the 2nd Canadian armoured vehicle brigade which was stationed in the UK between 1943 and 1944. If possible I would like to know where in the UK they were stationed and how I would go about finding his service record, I have access to ancestry.com worldwide but haven't been able to locate anything for him- any tips or tricks greatly appreciated, Thank you in advance
    Julia

    Have you inquired at the Imperial War Museum?

    Welcome aboard! You might want to consult our sister site WW2Talk which has a more European focus.
