It's been a few years Jamie. I'm trying to get ahold of Sid. He'd be the fella that would know the Gunners from your Dad's time. Wish I had held onto a nominal roll when I left. My apologies those names aren't ringing a bell. I'm also trying to get ahold of a former Gnr. bud who was with the Bty on closing and stayed back for move of the Bde. down to Lahr.
Hello I'm trying to find information about my grandfather Pte Maurice Oakland O'Brien or know as Morris or Bud. He enlisted September 1939 Royal Canadian Army Medical Corps 4th Field ambulance B88276 some photos of him and his Army Buddies, I would appreciate any information or photos.
Officially Enrolled as of August 23, 2024. [OCdt]
