    Its hard to find out about him as his service record isn't out on the Internet.

    Hi Matt,
    here's his MIC (pretty unlikely to be any other Ralph A Cholerton's!).

    Excellent research Tom. I see he had a 1915 trio and the India General Service medal 1908 with Afghanistan/NWFF 1919 clasp.

    Whatever its just an opinion.

    One interesting point is the theatre he was serving in, in 1915. MIC states "5F", which denotes the Tochi Valley, NW Frontier.
