Chris_Baker Posted 26 June , 2014 Share Posted 26 June , 2014 The prefix SPTS relates to the 1st and 2nd Sportsman's Battalions, otherwise known as the 23rd and 24th (Service) Battalions. His medal index card shows entitlement to the British War and Victory Medals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnboy Posted 26 June , 2014 Share Posted 26 June , 2014 His MIC on ancestry shows only RF no battalion shown. It seems to show only Victory Medal Roll SPTS TP 104B3 Page 155. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
