My father James Kennedy worked in the Admiralty during WW2 I think in Oswaldtwistle in Lancashire. Where would I go to get information on this?

Any records will still be with the MOD.

I would apply for his records in the usual way:

If his records aren't with the MOD, then they will will still be at The National Archives?
