Medals to NOK

I have a request for any one with some inside gen on how to obtain medals earned by a serving officer so they can be presented to the next of kin. Here is the story, in 1944 a Halifax was shot down over France, some crew survived, evaded or were wounded and made POW, one was killed. The crew member who was killed had a wife who gave birth after his death, I have been helping this "child" {now 69 years old}to trace what took place in those grim years as untill last year she had no information about him being a bomber pilot or what took place in those dangerous skies, you see a brother of mine was one of the survivors so I feel duty bound to help, however Im out of my depth in the field of awards and medals.If there is ANYONE out there that can walk me throught the process of obtaining these madals {I hear there is at last a Bomber Command Medal} plese PM me so I can send you my email and pass the information on to this lady, thanks in advance!Clunck.
