Sorry, I should have been clearer. I meant his army number.
Army numbers were in "blocks", so it is possible to tell which regiment a soldier first joined. However, you know that information anyway.
For example, my father had a KRRC number as he, and a number of others, ended up in 1st Middlesex when 9th Armoured Division sent people to 21st Army Group.
