If so there is a copy of his Seaman's Pouch held at Kew in file BT 372/1951/147. These files are usually hit and miss with the individuals details but usually contain a photograph from the individuals ID Card. You can order a copy this pouch at the link below, by clicking on the ordering and viewing option once on the site. These files should only cost around £5.60 if using the digital service and should take no more two weeks to receive.
