Can anyone give me any info on the RASC.
My Husbands Grandfather served with them during the Second World War.

Did the RASC have diff regiments?

His name was Joseph Valentine Harrold, but can find no info really.


Thanks

Try Andy Robert-Shaw the curator at the RLC museum at Deepcut...

One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

Hi Colleen

If your husband is next of kin he can apply for his service record, or with their permission, can obtain it.
