Re: w/c Walter MBE

Hi Jerry,

Two possibilities but this is the most likely:



19232, Walter, Cyril

F/O 1 July 1925

F/L 27 Feb 1929

S/L 1 Dec 1936

W/C 1 Jan 1940

The outsider is 32237, Walter, Ernest Luis Acton, but he would have to rise two ranks from Sept 1939.

On line Gazette should pick up the award of MBE for either man.

Regards

Ross
