A friend has asked me to help with her Grandfathers Military Records
She wants to send for his records but any information will be gratefully received as I am not familiar with Military records and I know nothing about researching these records.
She has his Short Service Record, His Medal Card, her brother owns the medals but refuses to climb in his attic to get them to show her.
Short Service Record
He was William Pritchard of 18 Bull Lane, West Bromwich Staffs age 30 yrs 5 months trade Waggoner
1st Batt South Stafffs Reg 56860
Campaign BEF 1914 3 Medals awarded Roll on which included F/2/4/81
Disembarkation date 4.10.14
She says he was a POW
He was previously in the 2nd Batt Cold Stream Guards (discharged)
Any help with this would be appreciated as I don't have subs to pay per view sites.
Thank You
Edna
