Roy William Richard Taylor military career WW II
« on: Wednesday 16 August 23 08:52 BST (UK) »
Roy William Richard Taylor and Florence Mary Hill Benn (Behm) then Taylor née Ashley married on 19 November 1949 in Kent.  Florence was my maternal grandmother and Roy was her second husband.  He was born around 1908.  I would dearly love to obtain any information related to Roy, specifically related to his military career during World War II.  Thank you.

Many of the WW2 service records are still held by the MOD, although these are slowly being transferred to The National Archives.
