Hi my name is Steve McGarry and I have just found this forum and thought I would tap into the wealth ok knowledge in these pages.

My father was Hugh McGarry and I have just found out that he was in The Buffs and was involved in D Day

Could anyone advise me where to look to find out about him as he has passed away and I only found out when 2 uncles were talking about him the other day.

Thanks in advance

Steve

Steve - Welcome to this fine place! I am sure you will enjoy your time here. I suggest you post your query in the "Information Request" section of the forum. It will likely get more traffic there than it will here.

Cheers!

Allo and welcome. The Buffs regt museum is currently under refit, with a rumour that it may not reopen or it'll be combined with the Queen's/PWRR one in Dover castle. Whereabouts was your father from?
