Somerset Light Infantry Service Records

Hello everyone,

Hoping you can help.... I am trying to find out how to locate my dad's service records for the Somerset Light Infantry for WW2. He served 1944 to 1948 and spent quite a bit of time in Greece. He was born in 1926 and is still going strong - he turned 95 this year and I would love to be able to find any information about his service days to share with him. I have his service number - 14869414.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards
Fiona

 

You need to get your dad to apply via the link here: Get a copy of military service records: Apply for your own records - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).

 

Many thanks for your reply - will have a look at what is needed. Cheers Fiona
