Hi Alf, Please see the section “Finding the Service Records of a Relative”
You can download the forms using the links in the article.
Once you have the forms filled in and sent off it will take a few weeks for the records to be sent to you.
Get a copy of the Battalion War Diary. It gives very detailed accounts of where they went.
