I have a surname and initials...and rank....that's about it - am I likely to find anything about him with just that please?
No - but you may stand a remote chance if we knew what they are! Except if the name is Smith that is.
Thank you...it wasn’t my intention to be coy or get others to do my research...I’d assumed it would be a “no”. His name was Charles E W Coe.
Possibly Life story: Charles Edward Wilkin Coe | Lives of the First World War (iwm.org.uk) edit - just beaten too it

His Pension file exists in Ancestry.
