    Re: Information needed

    Further to my needing information on the following person. He was a POW in WWII not WWI as I previously stated. He was either a prisoner or served in Poland at some stage during the war. This chap was the father of one of our Comrades and he is interested in gathering as much information he can about his father and his time spent during the War.

    JOHN HENRY PERKS
    ARMY NO. 2735445
    NAT INS NO. HH129151B


    Any information found would be appreciated.

    Hi Paul

    From his number I think he was a Welsh Guardsman.

    Hello Paul,
    The Welsh Guards have a web site and I am sure they will help if it is at all possible.The site goes under the name of Welsh Guards reunited. Log on and try your luck. I have used it on several occasions.
    Regards Brian aka jungle 1810

    Re: Information needed

    Hi Paul

    I can't find any reference to being a POW, and as he is not a Royal Welchman he falls outside my research archive.

    Best bet mate is to get the next of kin to apply for his service records.

    Army Personnel Centre Secretariat
    Disclosures 2
    Mail Point 515
    Kentigern House
    65 Brown Street
    Glasgow G2 8EX

    Instructions can be found here :
