Service Papers look up help please

[The Guardroom]

Hoping someone may be able to help do a look up on Ancestry when they next go into it.

I think the men below were 2 brothers and may be 2 cousins, but not to sure from Family history.

If anyone could help out and email me if they managed to find something, I would appreciate it.

S Lofty is the most mysterious as he does not appear on the village war memorial after perhaps DOW in 1919 ?????

Many thanks,

Alan
