The Second World War was the defining conflict of the twentieth
century and it is one of the most popular and fascinating areas for
historical research - and for family historians. More records than
ever are available to researchers whose relatives served during the
war. And this new book by Phil Tomaselli is the perfect guide to
how to locate and understand these sources - and get the most out
of them. He explains how, and from where, service records can be
obtained, using real examples showing what they look like and how
to interpret them. He also examines records of the military units
relatives might have served in so their careers can be followed in
graphic detail. The three armed services are covered, along with
the merchant navy, the Home Guard, civilian services, prisoners of
war, gallantry and campaign medals, casualties, women's services
and obscure wartime organizations. Also included are a glossary of
service acronyms, information on useful websites, an introduction
to the National Archives and details of other useful sources.
