	Hi Gary, Some websites for you. www(.)pro(.)gov(.)uk/research/easysearch/army(.)htm www(.)army(.)uk/unitsandorgs/ Perhaps RAMC stands for Royal Army Medical Corps. Regards, Sue

	It's was at Crookham near Aldershot. It is the medical corps, try keying it into your search engine, there's lots of info.
