251261 WOII. Frederick Kelly DCM British Army 1st Battalion Royal Irish Fusiliers from:Belfast, Ireland Frederick Kelly joined the army in 1925. His first posting was to Egypt and then to Agra in India. He married Miriam Alexander (an Anglo-Indian doctor). Soon after their daughter, Margaret, was born. It would seem Frederick was returned to England having completed 7 years with the colours. Miriam and baby did not accompany him. It would appear he was called again to the Royal Irish Fusiliers at the outbreak of World War 2 and rose through the ranks. His name appeared in the London Gazette on the 15th of June 1944 as having been given the Distinguished Conduct Medal. There are no details given as to the reason or actions for which he received the award. The regiment were serving in Italy in 1944. It would be of interest to know what became of him after this time.
