Army Roll of Honour 1939-1945
« Reply #4 on: Thursday 08 June 06 12:38 BST (UK) »
I have noticed that 1837online http://www.1837online.com/Trace2web/MilitaryStartSearchServlet now have "Army Roll of Honour 1939-1945" included in their searchable databases.

Quote
A Roll of Honour for the British Army was compiled during the years 1944-1949, and the resulting original documents are held in record series WO 304 . The information given includes name, service number and date of death, together with coded information on rank, unit first served in, unit at time of death, place of birth, domicile and place of death. The roll covers those who died between 1 September 1939 and 31 December 1946, and it includes those who died of natural causes whilst serving, although it does not include "disgraceful" deaths, such as those executed for captial crimes.The Roll of Honour is now available on a fully searchable CD-ROM, published by The Naval and Military Press in association with The National Archives, and it is available in The National Archives Library.
