munchkin Posted 15 June , 2004 Share Posted 15 June , 2004 Hi All, I am trying to find out when my G G Grandfather enlisted. I have looked on his MIC but it is not there. Is there any other way of finding out. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ian Bowbrick Posted 15 June , 2004 Share Posted 15 June , 2004 Hire a researcher or ask someone on the forum who is going to look it up for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ian Bowbrick Posted 15 June , 2004 Share Posted 15 June , 2004 No problem - if his service record didn't survive there is another way of doing - use the medal roll and find someone near his number who was discharged Para 392 and got a silver war badge - the SWB entry will have an enlistment date.

Michael Posted 15 June , 2004 Share Posted 15 June , 2004 This is a section from a Buffs SWB list. You'll see that you can't always equate enlistment date to service number. These man have prefix G and their enlistment date is in the right hand column Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
