What medals are they? The UK was (and is) a lot less generous with its medals than the US army is, a lot of the stuff that most US soldiers can expect to get (good conduct &c.) just don't have medals under the UK system. In fact, bravery in combat situations my just get you citations in dispatches under the British system.
If your curious I'll take a picture of them, maybe you will be able to tell me what they mean.
