Hi wildman
He would have joined shortly after my father and probably served in the West Indies before Palastine.  I don't have him amongst any of the information I have on Japanese POW's so he may not have gone to Singapore with the 1st Battalion.

Hi wendi, william rounding was my grandad. As he never really spoke about his time in the army im just trying to peice together with photos and his medals. all i know up to now is pre war but he must have served in europe as he won the france and germany star.

thanks
