Badjez then posted a photograph of a PRO document from which it was quoted that there was a unit in Caernarvon along with Hereford.
The document states in four regional groups which counties were designated 202. In region four on the document the counties shown are Devon, Cornwall, Somerset, Hereford and CARMARTHEN not CAERNARVON.
This tells me that Carmarthen was 202.
There may have been a unit in Caernarvon but it does not appear anywhere on the document shown here.
Does anyone agree or disagree?

Carmarthen was definitely 202 - even though the CART Auxunit website has them as 203 battalion.
