Records of RAF airmen who served after 1939, and of men whose service numbers were above 562875 are still with the RAF. |

Thank you for all your replies. If possible we want to find out his rank, where he served and when he was retired from the airforce |

If my husband's records are anything to go by, there are NO service locations on them, as I intimated in my earlier post |

Thank you for all your replies. They are very helpful. We're trying to find out where he was based and when he retired from the airforce. |
