Hi Spike14.

 

Looking at the possibles with Find My Past I concentrated on Dunkirk 1940 and Normandy 1944. I have found a Gunner J Adamson, 788196 of the 3/4 Anti Aircraft Regiment Royal Artillery wounded on a list recording Dunkirk casualties. Being an Anti Aircraft unit he may have been deployed on the beach. 

 

Looking at the RA records 3 Battery. 4th Heavy Anti Aircraft Regiment were at Dunkirk.

I have sent you over the document by pm.

 

Gunner ...
