Hello everyone! Not 100% sure but I may have been a member here some years ago but if I was I can’t recall my old Username...sorry. Not 100% sure where my interests in WW2 lay at the moment, after many decades of looking at the Great War this is a newish area for me. Until the middle of this year I thought our family had lost 3 members on active duty, 2 of my Gt. Uncles in WW1 & another in WW2. However I now know we lost a total of 5 in WW1 & 3 in WW2. I won’t be asking any questions just yet, I’ll be doing a search of the archives first to see if there is anything on Royal Marines on HMS Curacoa as well as the 286 (Airborne) Field Park Coy. Royal Engineers in Normandy.
