3A Is there any way of finding out what the MC was awarded for ?--Jim Sweeney (talk) 09:12, 10 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

  • Not that I know of. The London Gazette records only the award. I checked the WO medal card but it contains no further information. His full personnel file is unavailable, as he served in WWII. Hawkeye7 (talk) 00:05, 11 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
