Hello all again
( i dont know if this is the right forum to post this in)
im in a bit of a pickle, i have inherited hundreds of ww2 documents and photos,
they all belonged to my great uncle, Leonard Phipps who served in the Engineers (No.7592114)
i am in the process of making a scrapbook with all of his photos (there must be about 300+ of armour, aircraft and scenery during the second world war!
i need a bit of help tho.
he served in the "RAOC" from '39-'42 and the "REME" from '42-'46
could sombody please tell me the campaigns in order ,
he was in dunkirk, lybia, egypt, italy , europe and for some reason, Cape town
he was in the 22 Regiment in thewhen i discover more info i will post it
any feedback ideas, most welcome
