Hi
I am trying to find information about my Great-Grandfather. His regiment number was 9322 and from his medal card I found that he enlisted on 27/6/05 and was transferred on 7/6/18. But that is all the information I have. I don't know where he was transferred to or where he enlisted. I haven't been able to find his Army Service Records either. I have found the information about the 4th on this site wonderful and have shared it with my mother who only has the same information I have.

Anything that anyone can help with would be wonderful, thank you.

Sally

Thank you so very very much! You've answered a lot of questions that I had! The story in the family was that he had altered his birth date to enable him to join up early, but the date on the medal card for the 4th suggested that he didn't.

Thank you for giving me something more to look at and share with my family, it is really appreciated
