Thank you for replying . The problem is that we have absolutely nothing except the name on the war memorial. Frances pointed me towards another Douglas soldier ,same surname but

different initials. For a time I thought he was found as a Despatch rider via Medal card but then found that man alive & well at some famous funeral post war listed as an attendee.

We have printed out a Book of Honour & displayed it by memorial which just has initials & surnames nothing else. This man has an empty page.
