Hi
I have what is probably a very vague question about serving in the British army in WW2. I have a relative who enlisted in 1939 and survived the war. But he seems to have enlisted using his dad's first name and their own surname. He was 27 and married so it wasn't because he was underage. But he had been arrested in 1934 and perhaps went to prison briefly - could that have been why?
Sorry, I'm woefully ignorant about military matters.
Thanks all once again.
