Frederick John Barrett

[daljul]

I am hoping someone can help to locate the records for this person. This is what I know.

Frederick John Barrett. Date of birth 3rd July 1914 in Hartlepool Durham. Served in the London Metropolitan Police (pre war) It is believed he served in North Africa with the Rhodesian Army during WW2. Rhodesian Armoured Car Corps

I have had a look on the site but I can't pin anything down as being the person I am looking for.

Sorry that is all I have.

Hi

Individual service records for WW2 are not online for UK, so I would presume same for Rhodesia.

I couldn't access the original image yesterday. Checked today and can add "Last UK address - Arlington Rd, NW1"
