Description: This is a Group of 2 World War 2 medals in named box awarded to a member of the Womens Auxilliary Air Force. They are the France & Germany Star and 39-45 War Medal. They are both unnamed as issued. They come with medal packets and air ministry award slip in Air Ministry named box to K I Staughton, Miss. Her card dog tags are also present. They also come with a fitted cased, Womens Royal Voluntary Service medal, also unnamed as issued. The WRVS leaflet, (which has been laminated), which came with the cased medal has the name Mrs Krithia Isabel Houghton, Dorset, typed on it. This award seems to have been made in March 1989 according to date on leaflet. Kathleen Isabel Staughton, number 2065561 enlisted as a WAAF after May 1941. According to how awards of medals are worked out, I think she is probably entitled to a 39-45 Star also. Unfortunately the RAF 'ticker tape' is not in the box. She married in April 1948 under the name of Krithia Isabel Staughton to Acting Wing Commander George W Houghton OBE, MID. His service number was 79841. He was a Pilot Officer (SP), in 12/06/40, Flight Lieut. in 03/06/41, Squadron Leader 1943, Act. Wing Commander 1945. He was MID 01/01/43 (Gazette 17/09/43) & OBE 22/05/45 (Gazette 37153). Provenance: Noonans. More research required. Sorry about shaky photo! See my others. I will combine postage if the weight allows. I do not accept offers unless the listing allows. It will not be reduced, I would rather keep it in my own collection. IMPORTANT BIT PLEASE READ: Postage costs are payable by buyer. ALL postage is by a 'signed for' postage service. Overseas postage is handled by Ebay Global Shipping Program. Contact for more options. I cannot accept responsibility for items damaged or lost in the post, however, I always get proof of posting.
