archangel1919 Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Yes, he was a Captain in the Royal Engineers awarded the Military Cross for service at Murmansk, 1919: He was a signal officer and not a "combat" officer. I have wondered if this is why he received the St. Anne without swords. I have been told that this St. Anne is in "yellow gold".
