Where would he have signed up?
« on: Monday 23 April 12 12:55 BST (UK) »
Hi

My relative Robert Lowe was born in Aberdeen 1915.  He emigrated to Canada seven years later, as far as I know they never moved back to the UK so I am presuming the family is still in Canada for the 2nd WW.

So my question is... if he signed up would he have had to come back to the UK as he was "British" or would he have been able to sign for the Canadian Forces?

Any help would be appreciated

thanks

as far as I know he could have enlisted in Canada.
