    Default Albert Bush RE

    I am trying to find information about Albert Bush, I know he was in the Royal Engineers and served in WW1, but little beyond this. Any ideas of where I could find his service record please.
    Here is what I know so far:

    Are you looking for more information about his army service, or his family?
    Those details you already have may be all that exist of his service life, and you're lucky to have those because between 60 and 70 per cent of service records relating to WW1 and earlier had been destroyed by either fire or bombing by the end of WW2.

    I assume that you have the other pages that follow on from that first page headed 'service'. If I counted correctly I think there's twenty eight on Findmypast (FMP) though I think some of them may be duplicates. Ancestry should have the same number, but I haven't checked. If you've only got the first page, then you access the following pages by clicking on the right-pointing arrow which can be found halfway down the right-hand side of the page.
