The National Archives

All members of the British Army and Royal Flying Corps were awarded campaign medals if they served overseas. The National Archives holds the index and the medal rolls as well: they provide very brief details of service, such as regiment and theatre of war served in.

For a fee of £2.00 you can view digital copies of index cards to the medal rolls in DocumentsOnline.
