That is a fascinating read, thanks Harry.

Do you think the swag of foreign medals given to Captain William Lloyd-Jones were awarded after serving in the War Office in an Intelligence capacity?

Cheers

As usual Harry, another good story

"The NFD is not only one of the hottest and driest places in the world; when the wind picks up the sand it must also be one of the most violent. From the top of Lolokwi the impression is of an uninhabited corner of hell." from John Hillaby's 'Journey to the Jade Sea' - so not much had changed in 50 years

best regards

Michael

Maybe with his gammy leg he was employed on liaison duties in France, and thus came into contact with other Allied contingents and liaison officers.
