It is part of the Corps Archivist’s remit to provide interpretations of official records of service – by using the record of service obtained from the Army Personnel Centre, together with added material from the Archives and general references on Army history.  In short, we are able to produce a complete ‘potted’ history of the person’s time in the Army.  A modest fee of £45 is charged for this service, which enables the Museum to maintain the Corps Archives. 

To take advantage of this service, please contact the Corps Archivist mike.sibbons@rememuseum.org.uk

Any record of service sent to the Museum will be returned intact, together with our interpretation.  We prefer to receive the actual original photocopies received from the MOD, rather than a ‘copy of the copy’, as the originals were hand written using dip pens and poor quality ink – each successive copying reduces the clarity of the image, which can impair our ability to interpret the original.
