You could look where his unit was at the date he was serving. Where did you find his records? if it was Ancestry look at the notes on the bottom of the record which might tell you. |

Just thought I am not sure the Long Long Trail would help you but a very interesting site. |

Good luck with that as loads of them were destroyed by fire due to a bomb on the records office in WW2.My Grandad's were amongst them methinks as there are no trace of them. |

That reminded me to look for my Granddads WW1 record. |
