World War One / RAF - Founder Members - 1st April 1918
« on: Wednesday 14 January 09 00:24 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone know of a online resource or database that has a list of the founder members of the RAF / WRAF.
E.G.: Those Army (RFC) and Royal Navy (RNAS) men and women that transfered service on 1 Apr 1918 on the founding day of the RAF.
I have 2 in my direct bloodline (Both maternal Great Grandfathers) (one from each service) that I only just found out about. I'm very keen to track down as much as possible about them. Also my Great-Grandmother joined the WRAF in Jan 1919.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
