Hi all.
I've just started researching my great grandfather John Rodgers and found him listed on the 1939 Register of England and Wales with the following occupation:
Labourer H M F Gunner R A
138th AA Battery RA
I've tried searching his name on Forces War Records but am absolutely clueless when it comes to regiments, etc. Can anyone help me work out what unit I should search under to find his service number (and hopefully apply for his records)?
I have his DOB, DOD and next of kin, etc. but would like to know more about his involvement in the war.
Many thanks for any help you can give me :)
