Card shows:
medals, ribbons and clasps issued (a date next to any of these indicates that the award was issued)
the mercantile marine office (‘M.M.O.’) to which the medals were sent (in some instances a home address may be noted in this section)


Awarded:
Mercantile Marine Medal – awarded to those who served at sea for at least six months, and on at least one voyage through a danger zone

British War Medal -automatically awarded to all recipients of the Mercantile Marine Medal

Hello,

Andrew’s my great-grandfather. Would it be possible to know your connection to him, please? Many thanks.
