Hi Paul, thanks for that bit of info-I didn't realise people still bought commissions during WW2, do you know roughly what they might have paid? I'm curious as, although his father was also a career soldier (who didn't make officer), I don't think the family had huge amounts of money, so it would be interesting to know how much they would have had to earn for this. |

Cashiering is a ritual dismissal of an individual from some position of responsibility for discipline. |

Ok, I'll try that, thankyou. Do you know if there is any way to legally prove someone is dead, considering he went missing over 60 years ago? |

There are records at the National Archives of Court Martials. The files on the proceedings are closed for 30-100 years, so I would imagine his is still closed. You could apply for this restriction to be lifted but I think they would refuse as you can't prove his death. |

He was born in 1910, so I would presume he is almost certainly dead by now! |
