Hi and welcome to the Forum.

Do you know which Battalion of the Rifle Brigade he served in? I have a lot of information about the 13th Rifle Brigade.

There are a lot of people on this forum, with a lot of knowledge, I am sure someone will be able to help.

What do you already know, and what are you looking to find out?

I hope you enjoy using the Forum, glad to have you amongst the Pals.

Judy,

Just got back from the NA and got hold of your relations MIC and medal rolls. Unfortunately it does not say what battalion Rifle Brigade he was in but he entered France on the 4-5-15 but the 7th, 8th & 9th landed in France in May 1915. 2621 is a regular number though so will dig a bit more for you.

If you contact me off forum i will get the MIC and Rolls to you, still having sizing problems so i hope this comes out OK.

Andy
