Can you help?


my grandfather was in the home guard due to his reserved occcupation - working at Romily Motor company on 'engineering work' for the war effort.


I have been given his stripes (corp) and his homeguard arm band signias together with a badge which I am trying to find out more info on - A red square

(background) indicating a black drawn bow with arms and arrow?


Would you know what this signifies?

Any where I can obtain his official service record/find out more inf?


Im also quite interested learning more about your group.
