206070 Pte Arthur Frederick Newman British Army 70th Young Soldier Battalion Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire Light Infantry from:Birmingham My father, Arthur Newman, enlisted with the 70th Battalion, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry on the 15th May 1942, in Birmingham. He started his military training at No:16 Infantry Traning Centre, which I believe was at Cowley Barracks in Oxford, in June 1942. After his training he remained with the 70th Bn until his embarkation for India in April 1943. If anyone has any information about the 70th Battalion OBLI between these dates, then I would love to hear from you Please type your message:      We recommend you copy the text about this item and keep a copy on your own computer before pressing submit.
