Sadly I do not know his rank or service number or regiment. > > He was born and lived in Oldham, Lancashire, which may have some bearing on the regiment he joined, and I would very much like to know if there is a list of the recipients of Medals awarded after Dunkirk? > > With many thanks in anticipation. > > Regards > > Cynthia > Tauranga, New Zealand > > > ==== WORLDWAR2 Mailing List ==== > Please do not send virus warnings to the list.
