As you can see the memorial was in need of cleaning the last time I saw it, hopefully its had a facelift since then!
I think its probable the Kenneth Campbell listed on the WWII Roll of Honour is the VC listed on the Saltcoats memorial. I have posted some information on Campbell on the Saltcoats posting.

The Kenneth Campbell VC referred to is the same as named on the Saltcoats Memorial.
Campbell was born in Saltcoats son of James Campbell WS solicitor and bank agent.
At the time of his call up and death the family had become resident at Kerelaw House Stevenston hence the entry on both Saltcoats and Stevenston Memorials.
