Does anyone happen to have copies or transcripts of the RM Engineer Commando War Diary (DEFE 2/49) or is visiting the National Archives in the near future and can look something up for me please?

Thanks a lot,

Hi Julie
You could also try ADM 202/30 - Report on Operations at Akyab, Myebon and Kangaw period 3rd Jan - 2nd Feb 1945. I have a partial copy which I keep meaning to re-type and post. If you are looking for any specific information you could pm me and i`ll have a look.
Regards
Bill

Best regards,
