WWI grouping, Burns. Royal Navy Reserve, MFA. Unusual rank.

WWI Pair correctly named Jnr Eng J Burns MFA
Mercantile Marine medal correctly named Joseph Burns
RNR LSGC correctly named Warrant Engineer J Burns RNR

There are quite a few Joseph Burns that served during WWI in the Royal Navy Reserve as well as the Merchant Marine to positively identify our man without much further research.

A nice grouping, possibly entitled to more awards?

Nice rank of Warrant Engineer on the RNR LSGC.

A nice research project for sure.
