Staffordshire / Re: Smethwick - AFS unit during WW2

Hello Alycia,
thank you for your kind reply to my request.
I have previously asked around the local information units, so I posted here as there seemed to be little official recorded info about these units and their movements during the AFS existence, even when they became part of NFS. Hence my request on RootsChat.
What sporadic delving I have done seems to indicate from other forums that this is a national difficulty, and one which we need to ask granddads and 'mas before they pass on. I have frequently encountered a forum request for help with only one or two respondents, implying that there is little out there.
Hopefully one day someone will find a plastic bag in their loft full of this history.
