    Army Service Corps - Bury, Lancs around WWI

    Does anyone have any information regarding *Army Service Corps - Bury, Lancs around WWI? Location of barracks, any stories, facts and trivia - anything really.

    (* Army Service Corps gained Royal prefix around 1918 for their endeavours during WWI.)

    Just finishing a family history project for which I got alot of help/info/even records and a book written at the time - from Rumplestiltskin and others (thanks again all of you) about G Grandfathers service in the Balkans in WWI. Which was a pretty interesting story, far more than we had thought.
    I have lots of info on their time in Greece and across the Balkans but nowt on Bury as yet.


    Any info warmly received as it is for his 2 grandsons my father and uncle.

    ‘Good God!’ he laughed, and slowly filled his pipe,
    Wondering ‘why he always talked such tripe’.
