    Hi, whilst browsing through the War Diaries of 3rd Regt. RHA at the National Archives for 1944 (3 RHA 1944 1944 Jan., June- Sept., Nov., Dec WO 171_1009) and 1945 (3 RHA 1945 1945 Jan.- Apr WO 171_5079 and 3 RHA 1945 1945 May.- Dec WO 171_5080) I found copies of the War Diaries of 'J' Battery amongst them.

    There are now transcribed and on line for anyone to have a look at. Please see War Diaries For J Battery Royal Horse Artillery

    They start in December 1944 and go to November 1945, with June and July 1945 missing. I have also looked at the 3rd RHA Diaries for 1943 and there are no copies of an Battery Diaries in them, though. If I find any other Dairies for the Battery, these will be transcribed and published as soon as I can.

    Happy reading.
