    Looking for soldiers


    Recommended Posts

    Which Theatre of War he was in first you can see on MIC (only soldiers, who became entitled 1914 or 1914-1915 Star) on the MIC left bottom courner:

    War Zone: 2 Balkans

    Entering date: 27.10.1915

    I find the best to check first regiments on this site (if you are using Google, just type in regiment name and in the end 1914-1918 and it will pop up first or add to favorites page with the regimental lists)

    http://www.1914-1918.net/dukes.htm

    Also there is plenty of hints of to start doing research (lists with the war zones, how to read MIC, etc):

    Frank Soar was around a lot - enlisted first into 3rd (Reserve) Battalion for a initial training. Then (I think - very hard to read out) 8th (Service) Battalion. In France he was listed with the 10th service battalion and 2nd Battalion. In the end of the war, I think he was in the 13th (Service) Battalion. A lot of movements but nothing extraordinary.
