Hi Owen,
Ref the medals originally thought no, not granddad's, since by then my Dad had his own medals - Bronze Royal Humane Society and Scout Gilt Cross, but looking again, they could be his Dad's for show.

Interesting observation thanks and I will ask him about it when I can. His father was never in the Home Guard, but I will check about the medals.

I will check for other pics. I do know that the uniforms were hard to come by.
