Hi Lisa

You could try the under mentioned this is where I sent off to obtain my Grandfathers Service Record, I am still waiting for it at the moment. If you can get Home Guard Service Record in the same way these People would know about it I am sure.

HQ Secretariat
Historical Disclosures
Mail Point 400

Tel: 0845 600 9663

I hope this helps.

Regards
Jill
