From wedding photo Andy is a sergeant or may be a sergeant major. His hat is typical of those worn by New Zealand troops.
His cap and collar badges appear to be the Army Ordnance Corps, New Zealand.
Source
The badge above his sergeant's stripes on his right arm is a Trade, Proficiency & Skill at Arms. It is probably for a Mechanic, Fitter, Gunner.

There is no A Erickson in the WW1 medal roles who seems to fit.
