OLD ROBIN HOOD Posted 17 October , 2023 Share Posted 17 October , 2023 Greetings from an Old Outlaw. Since being chased out of Nottinghamshire by Maid Marion teaming up with the Sheriff I have enlarged my medal interest beyond just Nottinghamshire units . I have been offered a 1914-15 Star trio to D.A. 7281 J.W DUNKERLEY R.N.R . On the Star his rank is D.H. and on the pair L DH. I would assume that D.H. is Deck Hand and L DH is Leading Deck Hand . I have never seen this before ,so I would be glad of advice on this . Also I have no idea of how to research Naval personal , I have looked on National Archives and found nothing . So ,as usual , if anyone out there can assist I will be most grateful . Old Robin Hood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horatio2 Posted 17 October , 2023 Share Posted 17 October , 2023 (edited) Your assumptions about his rating are correct. His RNR record can be dowloaded (free) from TNA here - https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D8514790 P.S A minor point but the RNR Medal Roll shows that all his medals were issued to him in the rating of Leading Deck Hand (LDH).
