Two images from the Birmingham Post (possibly about 1945 - edit most probably 1939 see link in post #2 below) showing a battery of AA soldiers preparing to leave the Washwood Heath HQ for training in Wales. Viv.

The following link has a bit of detail about the 293rd. Battery and others. The date, from the link, is 1939. I did think it at the onset of WW2 as the issue of gas masks is mentioned.
