My dad was part of the Arctic Convoy

Should I contact Cardiff and ask for info I need to give to obtain his medal?

He died in 1986
Suicide.War damaged him.

I would like to know he would have qualified for a medal

Hi Robert, Sorry to hear about your father.

Do you have his Discharge book or Seaman's Pouch as this holds his records relating to his service. These documents may include application forms (most with a photograph of the seaman), certificates, identity cards, cessation documents and notifications of death. Some pouches contain a lot of information others virtually nothing. It's recommend that you get the pouch as it is part of his service records. However, the record that will tell you what ship(s) he was on would be his CRS 10. I believe. You would have too apply to the National Archives for these.

Hugh on site is the expert here, just keep looking in as he is a busy man. Have looked on Ancestry & Find My Past but they only provide your father's birth & death dates. Marian.
