welshdoc Posted 20 June , 2006 Share Posted 20 June , 2006 This may just be a silly question but Ill ask it anyway. If an officer served in France but refused his medals would there be a MIC at Kew? Is there any other reason ,apart from not serving overseas, that an officer or O.R. for that matter would not have a MIC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldstreamer Posted 21 June , 2006 Share Posted 21 June , 2006 Hello should still be a medal index card - the online search isnt perfect - but its very helpful! Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveE Posted 21 June , 2006 Share Posted 21 June , 2006 I thought an officer had to claim his medals, unlike the other ranks who were issued theirs automatically. Therefore (IMHO) no claim, no MIC. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per ardua per mare per terram Posted 21 June , 2006 Share Posted 21 June , 2006 I'm with Steve. I've reseacrch an officer who had a MIC - for his MM but not one for his 1914 Star trio! He is on the 14 Star roll, but the entry is crossed through as he hadn't claimed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshdoc Posted 22 June , 2006 Author Share Posted 22 June , 2006 Thanks chaps, that would make scence as Ive about 10 LG entries for an officer but no MIC one of the entries was for a trench mortar command so he must have been entitled.
