I'd say DCM and MM. He looks like he has two stripes on his sleeve so he's at least a corporal but he may have a third and be a sergeant, but I'd say his stripes would be further up his arm if he had three.
The same man also has at least two overseas service chevrons on his lower arm which dates this photograph to no earlier than 1918.
