Hi Dannemois Quote: Fusilier Brewer
<HR style="COLOR: #ffffff; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=1>
My uncle Fusilier Edward Brewer 4204990, 12th Bn RWF died on Sat 12 April 1941. It is said within the family he was killed whilst on exercise somewhere in Yorkshire. My mother has written to the Army Records Centre but that was approx two years ago, no reply as yet. Would welcome any information that will help.
Thanks in advance
Roy
| Might I suggest another letter to the records office but this time, at the bottom of the letter, write "Copies to "XXXXX" (your local MP) & "XXXXXX" (a local newspaper).
This has been known to work on the odd occasion.
Regards
Ron
