War records etc
9 Answers
My wife is trying to find details of her late fathers war record. Unfortunately, the most useful thing to know - his service number - we do not know :(
Anyone have any suggestions on how we can track down some information and where to start looking?
Thanks for any suggestions

You can go & search in person (you have to prove you are related to that person). Also, even if you haven't got your father-in-law's service number, you could try contacing his regiment (if they're not defunct now). For example, the Paras have their own museum, as do a lot of the old regiments and at least that would be a starting point - they could advise you where to go next.
