    Default Disembarkation at B.L.A in NW Europe

    My father arrived in "Northwest Europe" from the UK on January 28th 1945. According to his Army Form B103-1 he disembarked at B.L.A. Does anyone know where that is please?

    he disembarked at B.L.A.
    Are you sure the word "at" is there? I would have thought BLA stood for the British Liberation Army so he would have disembarked with or as part of the BLA.

    I've checked the document Peter, and you are correct it says "disembarked B.L.A.". I'd not come across that abbreviation before so I assumed it was a destination rather than the entire Army! I suppose he could have disembarked anywhere from Calais to Hamburg then?
