Home Guard List 1941: Eastern Command (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781902366227)

Created in July 1940, the Home Guard was not entitled to use military ranks until February 1941.All officers were then listed in the Home Guard List that was compiled in seven separate section. Each List gives details of all units proceeding down the chain of command from Areas to Zones, Groups, and Battalions. Officers are listed within their unit together with details of ranks (and dates) and decorations. Some entries identify service in previous units. These volumes allow for a much wider dissemination of this information that identifies personnel that did Home Guard service as officers and thus traces entitlements to the Defence Medal. This is a very useful volume for military historians and collectors, as well as family historians.
