My Grandfather was in hospital in Malta during ww2 He was admitted to hospital on 13 September 1943 source is given as - PII 58/43 and he was discharged to unit on 27 October 1943 source -PII 25/43 this is all from his service records. Is there any way of finding out what hospital he was in, or obtaining records of why he was there? many thanks Tony.
Not sure if it helps but some info on malta Hospitals here. http://www.bbc.co.uk/ww2peopleswar/stories/32/a2902132.shtml The main hospital, the 90th General, was at Imtarfa at the northern end, at one of the highest points on the island. They were a regular military hospital and had been there in peace time. They took the initial casualties. We formed the 45th General Hospital, a second line hospital, and were to take naval casualties and Maltese gunners.
Thanks again Owen this really is good of you mate. Interesting link you have put up there, the amount of bombs they dropped on Malta its amazing its still there. Cheers mate Tony.
