Harry Whitehead

War Reserve Police

from:Manchester

My Father,Harry Whitehead was recruited into the police force during World War 2 as a War Reserve Policeman his number was B128 and he served in Manchester fighting fires in the blitz and saving lives. He is dead now but he never received any recognition for his Wartime Service. He worked from Willert Street Police Station and his beat was around Cheetham Hill, which was a big Jewish area. People felt this was why the bombs were concentrated there. I would like to find out if my Father was entitled to an award or medal. It would mean a lot to me and his Grandson.
