Armed Forces / Army birth 1908 - Lichfield?

Helen (Nellie) McGovern was born 6 - 9 -1908 to sergeant John McGovern 3203 West Riding Regt and Ellen Brosnan. She was baptised at Lichfield 4 - 10 - 1908. The family believe she was not actually born in Lichfield but in transit somewhere, perhaps on board a ship. Is there any way of checking this? The birth cert of her brother John in 1903 specifies that he was born in the Married Quarters at York army barracks. However, Nellies birthplace is not specified on her cert.
