466/135 (M) HAA Regt RA 1941 to 1945

[Doggie]

According to the WW2 Territorial Army service of my father-in-law (Edward Crawford -Service No 1815898)

he enlisted for the duration of the war on 24 July 1941

he served in 210 AA Training Regt RA and 466/135 (M) HAA Regt RA.

His daughters believe that he

trained in Oswestry

served in London

and, towards the end of the war, may have served in the Dover area.

I would be grateful for any help I can get to find the locations in which 466/135 (M) HAA Regt RA spent the period 1941 to 1945.

Hi

Two war diaries here - https://discovery.nationalarchives.go...ro=any&_st=adv

more here - https://discovery.nationalarchives.go...ro=any&_st=adv - watch you only look at 135 regiment heavy AA, not battery or light.

You may find more, it depends on what you put in the search engine!

There are people who charge 10p a page to photo them at NA UK if you cant go there. Don't ask NA for a quote, it will be too expensive (1 pound a page!).

regards
Robert
