Home Guard List 1941: London District

War Office

<p>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, which was compiled in seven separate sections. Each section gives details of the relevant units proceeding down the chain of command from Areas to Zones, Groups, and Battalions. Officers are listed within their units together with details of ranks (with dates) and any decorations. Some entries identify service in previous units. By making the Home Guard Lists available to a wider audience, it now becomes possible to trace Home Guard Service and Defence Medal entitlements. A useful volume for military historians and collectors, as well as family historians.</p>

Home Guard List 1941: Northern Command

The Home Guard was created in July 1940, and all Officers were listed in the Home Guard Lists which were issued at intervals throughout the war, each covering one of the UK Military Commands. These Command Lists give details of the relevant units down the chain of command. Officers are listed by unit and rank (with details of any decorations awarded during the Second World War up to 1941 or previously). Some entries identify service in previous units. These volumes are of great use to family and local historians wanting to track down the commissioned service of individuals; and for military enthusiasts and collectors they are also a useful way of tracking military service and Defence Medal entitlement. This volume on the South Eastern Command covers the counties of Kent, Surrey and Sussex.
