Struggling to find war record. Served WW2 N. Africa, Italy, Yugoslavia. From Rhyl Denbighshire. DOB 17-11-1909

Hi Darrell
If he was a commando then possibly part of one if the units in 2 Special Service (Commando) Brigade. Army Commando, Royal Marine Commando, Royal Naval Beach Commando, Servicing Commando RAF ? As I do not have access to service records and in the absence of any other commando related evidence of service I cannot assist other than to suggest you apply for his service record. How to do so can be found on the link below and I would advise you to apply for a copy of his death certificate and attach it to your application. Several of the questions are optional but do put in as much as you can find out before completing. There are long delays but the initial application is free, with a small fee to pay if the record is found.
