at

From their home page:

From our site you can find military records of over 1 million British Armed Forces personnel and over 4000 Regiments, Bases and Ships of the British Armed Forces going back to before 1630.

Our site is split up into different sections with name searches of forces genealogy records for those personnel whom either died in battle or those still alive today, and our history search details information of just about every unit ever created in the British Armed Forces.

You can even save your military records searches and bookmark pages of interest to your profile once you have completed a free registration with us, to help you in your quest to put back together the pieces of
History you are looking for.

We are the only site to have collated this information in one easy to use cross-referenced database whereby you can cross-match personnel against the units they served in, making it very easy for you to build
information on their service history.
