This website will tell you how to apply for Army Records but you must be next of kin or have permission from next of kin

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England.

wonder if anyone could please help me. I am trying to trace my Grandfathers army record without much success.
His name was Clifford Robinson and he was born 26.05.1913. We were informed he joined the Kings own Yorkshire Light Infantry at Pontefract, Yorkshire and Lancashire around 1939/1940 to 1945/1946. My father wrote to the Pontefract office who have no record of him. We know he must have registered as we have his army badges with the dates and name of registry on it. If you know how I could go about this please let me know?
Many thanks, Louise
