Territorial Army discharge papers?
 

Hi All,

Has anyone had any experience with obtaining Territorial Army discharge papers?

From what I have googled it looks like these papers are different from standard British army discharge papers?

It would be good to know exactly what the US embassy would require....

Thank you!

This is new. Why do you think you need this? I thought TA was voluntary.

You mention US Embassy - Are you applying for a US visa? (this is a US visa forum after all ) - which visa?

Can't remember who I wrote to but I was in 2 corps QA and WRAC and just listed both plus number and they sent letter confirming in the TA with from and until dates. Will see if I can find the letter over the weekend as it should have an address on it

Yes Rich applying for K-1 visa. It asks if you have served in the military.

Although voluntary to join it is a bit different when you want to leave! =)

I have the contact info for the regular Army records in Glasgow. I will contact them when I get back to the UK and see what they say and report back.

Unless anyone knows any better?
