It's beautiful! I'm glad to hear you're taking the time to restore and preserve it. I was just telling Subtorp this morning how I am in the midst of scanning over 30 albums of my grandfather's photos. I want to make one of those hard copy books online for the extended family. <br /><br />Looking forward to the coming Fridays. I love old photos and their history.Tess Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04889725786678984293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-8380028852176604852009-07-31T10:04:00.025+01:002009-07-31T10:04:00.025+01:00You should be able to get his Service Record Book ...You should be able to get his Service Record Book on the Ancestry.co.uk site.
