During WW2 the Whitstable Times published lists of local people serving in the forces. These were added to during the war with further names supplied by the friends and families of those serving. This is a provisional list of Non-Commissioned Officers, men and serving women as at the latter part of 1941 and will be added to as more research is carried out.
The listing for Women is at the bottom of the main listing.
