    Hi Annie,

    Welcome to British-Genealogy.

    Yes, you're looking in the wrong place.
    I presume you were looking on Forces War Records, and if so, this will explain the connection to the BG forum.

    Service records for personnel who served after 1921 are still held by the Ministry of Defence. Details of how to apply can be found here

    You will need a copy of your father's death certificate, his date of birth, thirty quid, and a lot of patience because Covid has caused a massive backlog of requests.
