Default Help with info

Can anybody help with any info on 47407 Pte B.A. Reeves Manchester Regt. A friend found his Victory Medal WW1 while digging in the garden and we are trying to find out any info on him. Really appreciate any assistance.

Regards

Dudley Wall

Hullo Leigh. Many thanks. That was quick! It is a start. You would not know which Bn of the Manchester Regt he was in, perhaps?
