Tommy,

I've had a look on the online MIC's and there's only 2 Howards with 11109 as their serial..........

Medal card of Howard, T W

Corps: Royal Army Medical Corps

Regiment No: 11109

Rank: Private

Medal card of Howard, Thomas G

Corps: Royal Army Medical Corps

Regiment No: 11109

Rank: Private

Unfortunately, neither are W Howard.

How do you know that the first one is not your man or rather Tom's man?

Is it because the medal cards would definitely not have had T.W. Howard if the medal had W. Howard?

Kate,

Good point ( :ph34r: )

There is always the possiblity that the MIC has one set of initials and the medals have another. Pte T W Howard maybe the man, after all it is the nearest out of only two possibilities.... a nice bit of digging for Tom me thinks!
