My wife's aunt would like to know more about her father's service in WWI. He was Richard Arthur Frederick Freeman, born 1892 and died 7/11/1954.He attended Bromsgrove School and was appointed as an Officer in the Special Reserve of Officers when 2nd Lt. on 6/2/1915. He is believed to have served in the 3rd Bn Worcestershire Regt. Auntie has a photo of him marked Ypres 1916.He was attached to the Royal Tank Corps, promoted Captain and acting Major,and awarded his MC in the New year Honours List 1/1/1919. We know he was awarded the usual 3 WWI campaign medals.He was mentioned in Despatches. We would be grateful to know from anyone who can provide information about where he served. Is he mentioned in the Regimental diaries/chronicles? After WWI he served as a TA Officer with the 7th Bn. King's (Liverpool) Regiment and as Lt. Col. Freeman MC TD, served as its CO from 1927-34.
His medals are said to be somewhere in the family!
Auntie has a wealth of documents and old photographs of him and his army life, which she would be happy to be preserved by the Regiment if they are interested and would like to get in touch via myself?
