Kew Look up Please

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone is going to Kew at sometime. I am after a citation for a gazetted posthumous 'Mention in Dispatches'. I have checked the gazette website but it just mentions his name.
The details are as follows.
Beecham, John Arthur, Petty Officer. RN. D/KX 155277
He died during Operation Brassard and the invasion of Elba aboard H.M.L.C.I.(L) 132. Remembered on Plymouth Memorial.
Whatever he did it was 'Mentioned in Dispatches' and Gazetted on 7th November 1944.

Thankyou in advance for your help.

Mike
