jacq58 Posted 14 March , 2012 Share Posted 14 March , 2012 Sorry about the quality of the photo, but can anyone identify my grandad's uniform/regiment? His name is Albert Edward Bennett and he was born on 7th December 1890. I've looked for his MIC and service record but I can't tie it up so any clue re regiment would be a great help. I know this is only in black and white, but has anyone any idea what the decoration above his left chest pocket represents? To look at a photo of him, please click on the link. http://postimage.org/image/9vh0adq0f Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ribbands up are for either the 1914 or 1914-15 Star, British War Medal and Victory Medal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebie9173 Posted 15 March , 2012 Share Posted 15 March , 2012 The good news is that since he served after the war his records will still be held by the Ministry of Defence and accessible to family. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
