Royal Marines Service Record - Wound, hurt certificates etc what do entries mean
« on: Sunday 25 November 18 10:47 GMT (UK) »
Hi Everyone

Attached is a copy of the relevant page of a relatives Royal Marines service record. My question is what is the relevance of the entries in the box - Wounds, hurt certifcates etc.  ( WS1 3, WS1 4 etc)
I have googled but not come up with much.
Look forward to any assistance.
Regards
KK

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,

Hi Max

Thanks for this. Great source. I don't think my brain is working too well this morning. Just looking through the mass of papers I received I have got a page on his war service increment. Didn't connect the abbreviations to this. Sorry about that but good to have the link for the source.
Many thanks
KK
