Hi, I am researching a guy who served with t Recce corps and during his service in France & Germany during 1944/45 he moved quite a bit between units. He was held at some RHU (Reinforcement Holding Unit) but I am interested to know what the other letters/numbers mean - 1st April 1944 from 101 Reinforcement group to 38 Recce Regt 9th April 1944 from 38 to 59 Recce regt 28th August 44 from 59 to X4/21AG 14th Sep 44 from X4/21AG to 48/RHU/X4/21AG 12th Oct 44 from 48/RHU/X4/21AG to 43 Recce Regt 10th April 1945 from 43 Recce to XII/21AG 22nd may 1945 from XL/21AG to 32/RHU/XIVa/21AG 17th Jun 1945 back to 43 Recce. I would be interested to know if he was wounded during the Normandy Campaign? Any help appreicated, Cheers, Rick
Ravrick Looks like they didn't know what to do with him as the X(iV) means that he was on transfer- until someone needed him- the X(ii) means the sick list- then back to X(iv)- unlikely he was wounded as reinforcement units were invariably way back - so probably just sick with something Cheers
