	Can anyone tell me how I go about finding out what regiment in the army my dad was in. All I know is he started out in the boys brigade, served in the Korean War and was either a sergent or staff sergent. Please help. Jackie

	Key in word 'Army' at top of page where it says search. There are many past threads on this subject. Janet
