Family History Beginners Board / Walter welfare Conductor Indian Army Corp Clerks
« on: Monday 13 March 23 16:40 GMT (UK) »
I’m searching for info on my Grandfather Walter Welfare who was an “acting conductor in the Indian Army in 1943 and then a WO1 Royal Army Service Corps in 1943?
I know he was in Quetta in 1930/1931 as my own Mother was born during that time. What I don’t know is why he would have been in India during that time. Would he have enlisted into the Indian Army or been transferred from the British Army?
My understanding is that he was at some time in the Somerset Light Infantry but unsure over what period of time
