1st Row: unknown/ Commander, Officer, or Member of the Order of the British Empire (CBE, OBE, MBE).British Empire Medal (BEM). / 1939–1945 Star

2nd Row: Burma Star / War Medal 1939–1945 / Military Medal / General Service Medal (1918–1962)

Unsure about Left medal on upper row. I think I have the others correct except British Empire Medal. Please help.

Top left is the DSO, Distinguished Service Order.

The OBE is military with the center stripe. The oak leaves are for Mention in despatches.  The second to last ribbon is the India Service Medal.
