What was life like in WW2?
Join James Holland and Al Murray as they explore the fascinating Ancestry archives available to families wanting to learn more about family members and what they did during WW2. You can follow along & start exploring your family history at www.ancestry.co.uk/newyear
In this special episode, James and Al show how tracing a relative’s wartime story begins with the same tools they use themselves: the rich military records held on Ancestry. Drawing on Japanese POW questionnaires, RAF Operations Record Books, war diaries, and military service records, they reveal how blunt forms, tiny scribbled notes, and day-by-day unit accounts can transform distant history into vivid, personal experience. Along the way, they are joined by a military genealogist who shares powerful examples and practical tips for beginners. Together, the episode demonstrates how anyone can follow the breadcrumb trail through these records to uncover forgotten details, reshape family narratives, and better understand the lived reality of the Second World War.
