I'm a journalist wishing to contact the Association regarding a story.

How do I obtain a copy of a QMAAC, ATS or WRAC Service Record for myself or a relative?

The WRAC Association does not hold any Service Records, please contact the MOD.

I would like to take part in the National Service of Remembrance at The Cenotaph and to march in the parade, how do I get a ticket?

The WRAC Association receives a limited number of tickets from the organiser, the Royal British Legion. Tickets are only allocated to WRAC Association members and if the event is over subscribed a ballot will be held. Some tickets are also available for Association members for the formal opening of The Field of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey on the Thurday preceding Remembrance Sunday. To apply to take part in any of these events please email – info@wraca.org.uk

How do I obtain a copy of my course photo from Guildford?

Unfortunately the WRAC Association does not hold any Course Photos or other items of historical interest. On the disbandment of the WRAC on 6 April 1992 the contents of the WRAC Museum were ‘gifted’ to the National Army Museum where the majority of items have been archived. Some artefacts have been transferred to the Adjutant General’s Corps Museum in Winchester.

Can you help me with some historical research?

Unfortunately we do not have the personnel or resources to assist with individual research requests. On the disbandment of the WRAC on 6 April 1992 the contents of the WRAC Museum were ‘gifted’ to the National Army Museum where the majority of items have been archived. Some artefacts have been transferred to the Adjutant General’s Corps Museum in Winchester. The Imperial War Museum, London has a significant number of QMAAC and ATS images available to search online.
