The medals are loose and complete with their original ribbons, wax packets and a Medal Awards Slip which confirms the two awards and an additional slip confirming that this is Bailey’s full entitlement.

FURTHER DETAILS:

According to the 1939 Register, Alfred George Bailey was 37 in 1939 and employed as a ‘senior clerk’ - an age and occupation which could well explain why he was assigned to the Royal Army Ordnance Corps.
