Im trying to research the individual that this jacket belonged to. Inside the waistcoat that goes with the uniform is marked: T.R.T.CARR-ELLISON.
From doing a bit of research i can find that he was a member of 607 squadron, was granted a commission as Pilot Officer on June 11th 1934 and served at RAF Usworth. The picture uploaded is one i have found which is supposed to be him, i assume before he joined, although he looks awfully young in the picture?.
However, i am finding information saying he was killed in a training accident in 1939. If this is the case, he wouldn't have been entitled to the medals. So, am i to assume that someone has put this medal bar on the uniform, or was it another carr-ellison that was killed in 1939?
Any suggestions would be great.
