Nice post. Thanks for sharing. I think the earlier variation had AA rather than RA.
I've found two Glosters (my old regiment) who were both killed on the same day, 14/03/1941. The CWGC states "DEMS personnel". 5187924 Pte Ernest Hale 5187992 Pte William Worby I've read enough to understand that Royal (Maritime) Artillery personnel, more often than not AA trained, were DEMS, but I'm not understanding why my two Glosters could be DEMS personnel. I see the two Regimental numbers are very close. Have you got any ideas re my guys? Thanks, Ken |
