Thread: Hamilcar

From a postcard I have from my father to his mother it looks like he served on the Hamilcar, does anyone know where I can get more information. I believe I need his service number before I can send for service records.

Hi Valerie,

I have sent a PM where you might find help with the Hamilcar. If the records you are after are during WW2, they are still held by the Ministry of defence. You will only be able to get the very basic information and will still have to pay out for the search.

Thanks Starlight,
Have now found Hamilcar was a base and not a ship, so without the ship he served on, it has got even harder. Might try the Veterens Assoc. for some clues.
