	My sister applied for my mother's medal for being in the QAs in India in 1946. It does not have a name on it though. Suzanne

Member Since: August 2010 Posts: 6 Send Message	I believe that my Aunt Margaret (Cox) was in the Queen Alexandra Nursing Corps during WW2. Her DOB was approx 1907 and she died sometime in the 1950's (sorry can't be more accurate than that). Is there anyone who can access military records and find out the dates she was in the service and what rank she reached? I'd be very grateful.
