Hi,
The medal rolls show your man served in the 4th Bn. They were involved in heavy fighting, firstly at the 1 Battle of Ypres where they had 400 casualties in 4 days. Your man may have been wounded, recovered and posted to the 3rd Bn as a less than fighting fit infantryman.
His medal would have been then possibly named to the 3rd Bn, in which he was serving when his citation/award was gazetted.
John
