Sorry it has taken a while to get back to you.
There are quite a few medals in that case, please can you identify which are those belonging to Evans?
And is the photograph that of Evans?

Obviously the SJAB Bronze belongs to Evans, if the QSA & KSA also belong to him, he could have changed his unit, (i.e. RAMC , SAC, or various others) as he must have been in S.A. for 18 months or more.

His SJAB Bronze would only account for 6 months service, unless he went back for a second tour.

I hope this is not confusing you.

I would need his number, rank, name, and unit served in, as shown on each individual medal before I could try and help further. This information is well worth recording, so thanks for posting.
