Hi Maggie,

Welcome to the Forum. To obtain his military service records you need his Service Number. Firstly contact the Curator at the RWF Museum Caernarfon. Ask him to search for Tate's details in the enlistment books. If they find him, it will give you his number and also his battalion, and possibly period of service. They may charge a small fee for the search

You then obtain a SAR form from the veterans site, include a cheque for about £35, send it off to the MOD and wait about 4-8 months for the documents.

Let us know how you get on with the museum please. If they give you a battalion, we will be able to tell you a little about movements during the war.

Good Luck
