I am still looking for documents that show more about the WWII locations of his hospital unit.

My dad left papers, photos and mementos of his time served in England, specifically there are items from Tavistock, Dartmoor and the Devon area. Several framed prints from scenery in those areas and an old map of Dartmoor are still in our possesion and he clearly admired the beauty, even in war time.
