Thanks for that Brian. Really informative. The amount of material available for RQ makes this a golden age I think. I'm starting my first campaign in 30 years, with some old friends soon. Looking forward to it.

Bought my copy at Games Day in London when it first came out. Read it on the long coach journey home. Ground breaking at the time. Still have it on my bookshelf. I think I'll re-read it.

I have Forces War Records access. Similar to Fold3 if it's a UK record you are looking for. Happy to check for you.

Ashford is a town in the County of Kent, about 60 miles outside London. I can see a 1911 birth entry for Olive in Ashford. Mother's maiden name was Roper.

I make comics. My new book ONE FOR SORROW out now from DSTLRY. I drew The Wicked & The Divine, wrote Captain Carter, designed Captain Marvel & Ms Marvel, amongst others. I have ADHD if you're wondering why I'm like this. www.jamiemckelvie.fyi
