Greetings My name is Michael Stout and I would like to know how to go about tracing details of my father's war history His name was Stephen Stout and was a driver/lance corp in the signals -- sent to North Africa about 1942/3 and also served in Greece and Palestine before being demobbed in 1946.. I dont have a service number Thank you
Hello and welcome to the forum. The first thing to do is apply for his service records. Be sure to ask for the full records. You don't need his service number but you will need his full date of birth. Be prepared to wait about 6 months. https://www.gov.uk/requests-for-personal-data-and-service-records Any other information you can supply, ie photos etc would be most welcome Lesley
