Could you forward them by email for others to see?
Send me a PM if you would like me to look over the details

im sorry i didnt explain very well, these records have come as a shock to the family as my grandad was told his dad died in the war and he didnt he got release in nov 1945. theres a section of his movement that says
1raf depot (ne)ux
and on one section of his records it says c.i.d legal 22/7/47
I would be happy to email a copy of these sections for people to see
