So from these records it is clear that he was awarded:
1939 - 1945 Star ~ Ribbon Issued
Atlantic Star and Clasp ~ Ribbon Issued
Pacific Star ~ Ribbon Issued
Italy Star ~ Ribbon Issued
Whilst he was obviously entitled to the War Medal the listing is unclear. My interpretation, rightly or wrongly, is that he was actually issued with it. The problem with all these records is that many people have been involved with their upkeep and consequently not everything is always as it seems 70 years later.
