thanks so much lads,

just wondering,with the MIC that bradley has kindly showed,would the MM not be on it?

and also would the link that steve provided be the same MIC that bradley has shown?

am assume that duveen is a miss spelt dublin.

will try and hunt down some of the local newspapers for more info,but you guys have given me his regimental number and london gazzette page and that will make it easier.
