From the little research I’ve done, Richard Lewis Webb was born in Middlesex in 1882, his occupation listed as Electrician, a somewhat hazardous job at the time one would assume! He served in the 109th during the 2nd Boer War, then enlisted in the Royal Flying Corps during WW1. He was an aircraft mechanic I believe who rose through the ranks of mechanics from 2nd class to 1st class, then chief mechanic. The medals are in as found condition, the ribbon of the SA Medal is very tattered and not connected to the medal and bars. The medals themselves are in good original condition however some of the ribbons are quite worn. Please judge by the photos, they are a good indication of condition.
