I have a William Ingram , his number appears to be 42250, but it has the letters K.L.S.I.
Havnt got a clue what these mean, can anyone shed a light on this. He is living at 1ct Barrack street 1.

Hi there, its the wrong way round, it was the infantry that was light not the County, would have been KOSLI, my brother in law did his national
service with them, I still have his cap badge, Bernard
