Just to add, they will cost £30 and you need consent of the next of kin and also need to provide a copy of the death certificate. I sent for my grandad's WWII records and received them in about 4 weeks. Sam x |

Sam Did you have to fill in one of the SARs forms? They seem more for recent service men. My grandfather served in the First World War but the forms don't seem relevant to this. It is not very clear to me where to apply for WWI. Can you advise please? Jennie |
