He was awarded the Military Cross almost two months after his death on 5-1-1945. The RCA website only says he was awarded it. Is there any way to get details? Thanks.

Poppy, the “normal” site I use to find the information on medal awards HAS Herbert Croome listed, but when I click on the pdf link it gives me someone completely different.

I will let the site know of this error, and hopefully someone can correct it so we can get his Award Information.

The above info (previous posts) is all I can find to date.
