Just thought I'd mention - when talking (well PM ing)  to Annie about this family - I believe the two boys on the NAA / nominal roll are the same person. He enlisted in 1941, put his birth date up by 2 years. 6 weeks later someone discovered this as he was discharged. Enlisted again the moment he turned 18 & was killed - just so sad.      

There also seems to be a younger brother Reginald, who initially tried to enlist at the same time (He would have been 14!). He enlisted for a 2nd time in April 1945 and was discharged 2 years later.

Hello there Trisha

i did wonder at it all and my thoughts were down that track  having seen it recently  with someone else
the father had written a letter to the army abbout it

i di wonder why the boys pcked a date a day apart maybe they were passing themselfs of as twins!!!

but i do think that reginald could be a brother
so hoping annie can get the records

Hi Jenn

I think there was much more checking done in WWII. I had one family person - put his age up for WWI and down for WWII. They kept him in WWI but discharged him in WWII    .

They picked the actual date of the older boy's birthday - probably needed to be able to remember what was said    - I rarely give correct dob on internet when requested - will never be able to remember what I have stated   

I definitely think these lads were brothers. Annie is going to get a transcript of father Milner's death so hopefully that will list all the children.
