My Grandfather was stationed in Blackpool during World War 2 responsible for the barrage balloons. I believe he was a civilian instructor and the R.A.F. utilized his skilled background, however he may have not necessarily join the R.A.F. as they have no records of him as I have already inquired. He is is shown in the Almanac in Brechin Library where he lived as being on the Muster Roll of 1941 showing him as an Instructor with the R.A.F. Therefore there must be a record out there for him. This is all I know of him. Can anyone help please.

Thankyou
All the best

Thankyou for replying to my posting however this site appears to be mainly for the U.S. and Canada. For some reason their records are more accessible than the U.K.
