I have downloaded a WW1 medal record:

WO/372/21 Ref 29379 Private Charles Wilkinson Regimental no. 7060.

There is a note on the card which I think says

'British War Medal returned RVB 136 31.1.56'

(the print is not clear). Could you possibly tell me what this means?

I have attached a copy if you need to check the original.

It means that the BWM was returned to the Records Office & then on to the Mint for attention{in the 1950s}possibly it was mis~impressed ot the suspension was broken & required repair?
