James,

Here are Marshall's medals.  See attachment.

I have progressed very well on the story of his life and military service.  The photo album, hopefully, will provide more details of his service - even if I have to interpolate based on the images

The medals in my last post are, from left to right:  British War Medal, Victory Medal and Special Constabulary Long Service Medal.

You may be familiar with these.

Album has not arrived yet, but should be due any day now.

I think the photos will help greatly in determining where he was and what he was doing, especially the one in Simla, which was a British rest camp in the mountains of India during that period.  Wonder how he got there and why?

Most of the pics as I recall were in Basra Port and other parts of Iraq, the pencil annotations beneath the pics are so difficult to read.
