davidb, welcome to the Forum.
Do you have any idea of a cap badge for John, or where he was born?
Estetal Kaserne became Spey Barracks, as you no doubt have seen on the main site, and the earliest entry we have for the moment is about 1948. The Archivist at The Black Watch gave info that the 1st Bn were in the area in 1945.
Paul. |
