    Can anyone help me find the service records of my Grandfather

    Hi all,

    I am looking for any information about my Grandfathers service records.

    William Hennessy DOB 17/09/1907, Death 1975

    2032810 Spr W Hennessy Royal Engineers.

    would be interesting to find out what theatres he served in during WW2.

    Thanks for your help.

    WW2 service records are still held by the Ministry of Defence - you can apply for a copy ( a charge of £30 applies).

    Details here.

          Thanks Christine, both grand parents have passed away now. I will be applying for his records using the link Antony provided.
