Sir Sidney Kirkman

Officer Notes

Criteria [1]
# Note
1 The official history of the Royal Artillery (Farndale) records that Lt-Col SC Kirkman mobilised 65 Medium Regiment RA and took it to France in 1939. This conflicts with all Army Lists I have seen which do not have Kirkman as an Acting Lt-Col until June 1940. According to the Army List he was a GSO II and GSO I at GHQ India in 1939-1940.
2 The Army Gradation Lists do not record that Kirkman was ever CCRA of a Corps in the UK in 1941-42. He is listed as CRA in 1941-1942. However, most sources have him as CCRA XII Corps in 1942 and I found a War Diary Entry for 7 Survey Regiment RA for 23/01/1942 which lists him as CCRA XII Corps.
