Hi. new to the site. I'm trying to find the service record of a relative named Edward Knight. Service record number JX355318. He served on the HMS Dunbar minesweeper ship from 1942 to the end of WW2. Can someone help me find his information please ?

Hello Rick and welcome to British-Genealogy

You will not find any WW11 service records online as they are still held by the Ministry of Defence. Read this sticky which gives links to the veterans site where you will be able to download application forms. It will tell you what you need to apply and the cost.
