Nigel,

There are service papers for the man you mention.



Service papers are normally four pages in length and give a wealth of information.

They are available at cost at FindMyPast or for free at the National Archives in London.

Kind regards
David

Hello Mike,
Thank you.
From a paper clipping I have he was in the 13th Hussars, so the A E Jennings 3869 will be the person I am looking for.
