Hi Tom!

I tried to look up his medal card but there are 793 documents found under William Richards!
Do you have any other information that might help distinguish your William from the rest
Any dates or photos or family stories that might help ?

Hi Tom

Some battalions of The London Regiment did go to Egypt early in WW1

and

According to the Campaign Medals there were several William D. Richards who were in The London Regiment.

Hope this helps in some way
