Malta Armed Forces - PULI
« on: Monday 07 February 11 06:20 GMT (UK) »
Hi!
I am trying to find information about my great-grandfather. The only information I have is that he was a Sargeant in the Maltese Army, possibly around World War I. His name is Emmanuel Puli and lived in Birkirkara, Malta.

Any help and guidance is appreciated.
Thanking you in advance!
Melissa

It wouldnt be the Maltese Army, it would be the Maltese contingents of the British Army, the most notable being the Royal Malta Artillery...

I have some military chums in Malta, and will enquire with them if they have any int for you...

One more charge and then be dumb,

        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

Hi and thank you for your reply. Yes you are right.. it is the RMA... I found some paperwork from when his son was applying for the family to visit Australia!
