WW1 Royal Navy Medal Group HMS IRRESISTIBLE

[Fritziii]

Found this medal grouping this morning at our local flea market, all the medals are named to a 277952 Albert Pearce STO.P.O. , the long service medal is also marked like this but with HMS IRRESISTIBLE, came with his ribbon bar as well. Anyway to find out what other ships he was on since the HMS IRRESISTIBLE was sunk in 1915 in the Dardanelles. Pretty neat group being the sailor was on a battleship.

The ribbon bar is upside down making the medals back to front.

I'll have to get his records, what does the STO. P.O. Stand for? I'm not well versed with British ranks
