My father, Norman Lock (1924 - 2021), received some medals for his service during WW2 in the Royal Navy (1942 -1946) The medals he received some time, apparently not long after WW2, are substantially smaller than the larger ones (in the photos) that he received later on in 2016 or 2017 while living in Australia.
Norman made an application to Ministry of Defence, Medal Office, Innsworth House, Gloucester GL3 1HW, in 2016. A letter from the Ministry of Defence had the following information.
Issue of Medals.
Issued to JX359656    N C Lock  RN
Awards
War Medal 1939-45
1939-45 Starr
Burma Starr
Pacific Clasp
Atlantic Starr.

Norman had some assistance in making the application from the Australian and British War Disability Pensions / Welfare Officer. Beach Vale, sub section, Naval Association of Australia.
