Searching for Grandfathers Medals

Hi all,

I am looking for some information about where to go or who to contact with regard to my grandads medals.

He was serving in the Fleet Air Arm during WW2 and served in the Mediterainean sea before being torpedoed and eventually invalided out of the service. His wife (my grandmother) is only now starting to talk about what she knows etc and is wondering who to contact to see if he was either eligeble for or had any medals issued to him during his service career.

We have done quite a bit of futher research and have built up a conscise history of his service career but as yet do not know who to speak to with regard to this one issue.

Anyone who has any help or suggestions they would be much appreciated.
