On my elderly father's behalf (now 88) I have recently obtained his WW2 service records from the RAF. Unfortunately, they do not contain any information about his awards other than that he received them.
My father is now frail and his memory is very poor. The London Gazette only mentions that he was awarded the DFM but no citation (Sept. 1943). The London Gazette does not have a mention for his DFC (awarded Jan. 1944?).
I know he went to Buck House and received his medals from George VI (12 Dec 1944) but I don't know what he did to receive the medals! If anyone has any information, I would be extremely grateful for your help.
Regards
JS
