The Machine Gun Corps The Long Long Trail

Researching:
We are all of us in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars, Oscar Wilde New avatar, my dad age about 3/4 months, could have been worse, it could have been the awful nude on a rug!!

Have you been in touch with the Machine Gun Corps. They are trying to get together loads of photos and names.

The records from the war for this regiment are virtually non-existant.

Will post the email etc. They are doing a great job.

A fantastic piece of memorabilia - have you been able to spot your relative, assuming he is featured?

I have uploaded a photo in my keepsafe for everyone to look at of the 3rd battalion Machine Gun corp. Dated June 1918 in Grantham. Unfortunately i have had to upload it in 3 parts due to size.
