The veterans site will only lead you to the official .gov.uk site where the info and forms are for a request for personal data, link below,

You don't need to be next of kin, or have their consent but there are some criterior that needs to be met

See https://www.gov.uk/requests-for-personal-data-and-service-records

REGGIE (Unclear as to why a birth for a SMITH has been posted)

Cos there is no birth that fits ... nothing in Scotland

as a hell of a lot of WW1 WIDOWS remarried it was possible a surname change
but can not find a mother that fits. Hence the ?


Perhaps Claire would prefer write to the son .?

I don't know what that link is but this comes up

FORBIDDEN

You don't have permission to access /service_records/ on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Get a copy of his death cert, to find out if the informant knew where Gordon was born

If you are his next of kin, you can apply for his service records.....they will cost £30.00, and take several months to arrive

Does anyone have any information about Gordon Kichener Perry of Cheltenham born 1915 but where I am not sure? I cannot find much information regarding him, I know he served in the HM Forces. Any info would be very much appreciated.
