Useful Links.
A list of resources and websites which I have used many times and found very helpful over the years plus a few new ones. - David W Fell.
RAF Personnel Records.
Records of Service of RAF personnel who joined after 1 April 1918 are split. Some remain in the TNA. Those with Service Numbers in the range 1-329000 who continued to serve after the end of the War and those with Service numbers higher that 329000 are retained by the RAF.
To apply for an RAF Record of Service which is not in the public domain contact:
