hmsk212 Posted 12 March , 2005 Share Posted 12 March , 2005 OOh beaten to it The SDGW show him as died rather than Killed in Action. This normally indicates that he died from something not War Related, eg Accident, Illness etc Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste Posted 15 March , 2005 Share Posted 15 March , 2005 Barry, as you might already know (apologies if so), 11th South Lancs were the St Helens Pals, and were a pioneer battalion. Cheers, Ste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxsapper Posted 15 March , 2005 Author Share Posted 15 March , 2005 Thanks Ste! I didn't know this. My mate has the medals in a tin he bought with a load of badges etc,and I said I would do a forum question for him. Thanks again for the info- it all adds up!
