Like most changes, it needs getting used to - I've had it since it was first introduced and can't even remember the 'old' search.

Hate it . Just been in to look at a record I previously found and have gone around in circles on the New Search trying to find it .

Took me 15 mins of searches to get the right Army record to come up .

Was still on the Old Search earlier today

They have been tinkering....Old search has now gone :-(

I really dislike 'New search' and have avoided it like the plague up till now.
