Pembroke III

(1/1)

K10859:
Afternoon, all.

Haven't been here for a while. 

On my grand-father's papers is "Pembroke III (Eglinton)".  One website says Pembroke III was London, but Eglinton is in N.I.

This was 1940.  Has anyone come across it?  Thanks!

PhiloNauticus:

This is odd.  Pembroke III was an accounting base - i.e. not an actual place, but a section at a naval base that administered pay etc for people at detached  locations.    It is not listed until 1942, so strictly did not exist in 1940...  likewise, Eglinton was not a naval base until 1943...

K10859:
Thanks for the reply.  How v odd!

His papers read:
Pembroke II July - Aug 1940
Pembroke III (Eglinton) Aug 40 - Aug 42
Then Pembroke, Trelawny, Pembroke, Mylodon, Pembroke.
Then permanent release in 1945.

Cheers
