barrieduncan Posted 2 May , 2006 Share Posted 2 May , 2006 It basically tells you that he was awarded the 14-15 star and the BWM and Victory medals. The numbers next to these are the references to the medal rolls at the National Archives. It looks like G 105 b2 page 137 for the BWM and the Victory, and for the 14-15 star it looks like G 4B page 24. It also mentions that he was Killed in Action on 10th May 1915 and that he landed in France on 19th of Feb 1915. Barrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacjac18 Posted 2 May , 2006 Author Share Posted 2 May , 2006 Thanks Barrie Couldn't really make out the writing on it and the copies not that great. Wasn't sure what I was supposed to be looking for,getting the copies online is great but it makes them difficult to read sometimes. Cheers for checking it out Jac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
