for Military Medal 27th October 1916 "1005 Bmbr. J.P. Matthews,
Hdqr. Staff, 253rd Bde. R.F.A. (T.F.)"
This group is direct from the family who provided some additional
information. Matthews was gassed in WW1, which resulted in his
discharge in 1917, he lived
South Shields. Matthews went on to serve as a Chief Engineer in the
Merchant Navy. In WW2 he served in the Russian Convoys and the North
Atlantic, also present at the Invasion of Sicily. Probably entitled
to an 1939-45 Star, Atlantic Star, Italy Star, 1939-45 War Medal;
although we think these were never claimed. Copy photo of Matthews
in MN uniform is included, he is wearing his WW1 ribbons and the
39-45 Star ribbon we believe. Matthews died aged 75.
