I have recently been sent three ww1 medals - 1915 star, Victory Medal and the British War Medal, in respect of A Bradford. Pte serving with tge Royal Warwickshire Regiment, his Regimental No was 3674. I have searched a number of databases and I cannot find any details regarding his service or medal card. I am using ancestry. It might be I am using the wrong search criteria? Any help would be appreciated.

Well I can see from the British Army Service Records on FindMyPast that he enlisted on 17th December 1914 in Birmingham and that his full name was Alfred Bradford. Not yet found his full record for more information.

To everyone who has replied to my post.
Thank you no wonder I was finding it very difficult to identify his details.
