    Biographical history

    Pte Ronald Broadbent served with the British 21st Army Group at the Number 8 General Hospital in Germany. He was certified as an Army Orderly in the Royal Army Medical Corps on 24 November 1938. He married Bessie Denham in 1944.

    Custodial history

    Scope and content

    The fonds consists of a scrapbook with items pasted in. There are also some loose items. There are a few items that pre-date the war such as Bessie’s Girl Guide certificate and Ronald’s choir membership card, as well as his Orderly certificate. Most of the fonds consists of sports and entertainment programmes. The theatrical programmes were mainly issued by the Entertainments National Service Association (ENSA) under the director of the Navy, Army and Air Force Institute (NAAFI). There is also a service dedication and two photographs for the Church of St. Luke, 115 British General Hospital, and one group photograph including Bessie.
