A PETERSFIELD man who has proudly worn his white Arctic Convoy beret with pride for more than half a century has been honoured with two special medals to mark his bravery and heroism during the second world war.

Wally Griffin, 89, from Burgesmede House in Petersfield, was one of five recipients to be honoured with the Russian Convoy medals at a special award ceremony on board HMS Belfast in London.
