If you're waiting for them to be released into the public domain, it won't be until at least 2039 or possibly 2046. The 100 year rule will apply. |

Sorry but you won't find the records online. WW2 service records are still with the MOD, here's how to find out how to order them - they cost £30 and sometimes takes a few months for them to arrive. |

Hi, I would really appreciate any help/advice on tracing my Grand Father in the 2nd world war. His name was Joseph Richmond 1907-1966, born and died in Keighley, West Yorkshire. He went in the army in 1940-1947. I think he was in Palestine but not 100% certain. Thank You. |
