Default Lieutenant Colonel Devonshire Regiment

I've had this for a while and I'm trying to decide whether to keep it or move it on as I'm accumulating too much.

There were quite a few Lt Cols in the various Devonshire Regiment Battalions, I would be nice if I could work out who he was?

So perhaps there are some clues in the medal ribbons.

Am I right that the Territorial Efficiency medal was only awarded to other ranks who had done 12 years service in a TA battalion after 1930?

And that no Devonshire Regiment Battalion served in N Africa in the qualifying period for the Africa Star, but would the 2nd Battalions time in Malta or the 4th Battalions in Gibraltar have qualified?

The Gilgil country club tickets I found in the pocket were presumably from a period of leave in Kenya?

Thanks for looking

Rob
