Pembroke III

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!

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...

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
