Did you get the bits from Ebay? as I just got the same mans Paybook last week - very little in it but I can add a few details he was a bricklayer and enlisted for the Duration of War on 30/10/15 at the age of 20 years and 3 months. With the paybook was a short history of the KOYLI marked inside J T Briggs 7th Batt - so I guess as well as the 11th he was also in the 7th for a time.

If you download his MIC can you post a copy on here or email it to me - no point in us both paying for it.
