Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me with interpreting the medal card of Arthur Edwin Brice Essex Yeomanry Remount Service (Reg No 1151) or can find out any more about his service. Another card has MID Lon? Gary? 14.6.18 Page 7049 on it.

Cheers

Hello Ricko,

Can you post the 2nd (MID) medal card picture or link. I`ve also searched for it without any luck.

Thanks for asking about him and pointing out the MID, which I had not previously spotted

Here is the info I have on him:

Arthur Edwin Brice

son of R A Brice, Rivenhall

1151, Essex Yeo

To France 30 Nov 1914 with 1/1st EY

Wounded 13 May 1915 in the arm - this was the attack at Frezenburg Ridge

Commissioned 2 October 1915 as 2nd Lieut, Lincs Yeo (LG 1.10.15 p9656). The medal roll in WO329/22 shows this was 3/1st Lincs Yeo

Died 26 January 1967, age 81

In WO338, there is a long number reference for his papers (LN202426) which suggests probable WW2 service

I hope this assists

Best wishes

Ian
