Frederick Alfred Dunning

Hello, I'm trying to find out any information at all regarding Frederick Alfred Dunning. He served with 2SBS in Bahrain in Singapore in the early 1960s. He passed away and I'm trying to find out info for his daughter and widow. Any help would be much appreciated.

Not sure if too late but he was known as Chippy.

Hi Jamie,

Sorry for the delay in replying to your original post - it slipped past me somehow!

Looking at the dates he served in the SBS, I'm assuming that he was a Royal Marine?
May I recommend that his family apply to the Ministry of Defence for his service record.
The record is available to his close family and if his widow signs the consent form then there is no fee (otherwise there is a fee of £30).

Here are links to the two forms that would need to be completed and accompanied by a copy of his death certificate.

Thank you very much. I'll be sure to pass on.

Best, Jamie
